A court room dramedy that is equal parts hilarious and scathing critique of patriarchy. The repartee between Tracy and Hepburn is a joy to watch while Judy Holliday as the unsuspecting symbol of women's rights is delightful.

George Cukor directed this "uncinematic" but well-played and often witty MGM comedy about the battle of the sexes ... Cukor's work is too arch, too consciously, commercially clever, but it's also spirited, confident.

Not sure how this one got labeled a comedy, almost completely lacking in humor and what jokes there are don't fit the tone. It's an "issue" film about equal rights for women, but ends up being quite regressive. Amanda uses pretty suspect logic to defend her client and in the end, is "proven" wrong by Adam after the trial has ended.

Woman's lib theme that's really not too dated considering it was made in 1949. It's really surprising how little has changed in more than 50 years.

Embarrassingly not-dated in a lot of ways. We're still having these discussions 65 years later? Hepburn and Tracy are great, but it goes off the rails a bit the more madcap it gets.

Tracy and Hepburn have really good chemistry together even if Tracy's character is pretty unlikable, and it has a feminist message to it, which is still surprisingly relevant in post-Lorena Bobbit world.

Doesn't quite find the right blend of comedy and drama. The material is too tragic to be a successful comedy with moments too silly to be a successful drama and overall not nearly self-conscious enough to be a successful dark comedy. But Hepburn and Tracy are charming as ever.
