Movie Reviews

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 8/10 by Jane SchoettleBetter Broadway musicals than Bells Are Ringing have come to Hollywood, but few have been translated to the screen so effectively.
Classic Film and Television - 8/10 by Michael E. GrostInventive, emotionally involving and visually stylish musical.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 8/10 by Emanuel LevyMinnelli's last collaboration with Arthur Freed is an old-fashioned, moderately entertaining musical that suffers from lack of chemistry between Judy Holliday and Dean Martin.
New Yorker - 8/10 by Michael SragowVincente Minnelli makes use of the wide screen with graceful, fluid movement, and he helps Martin anchor his usual breeziness with just the right amount of anxiety.
Out of the Past - 7/10 by Raquel StecherWith plenty of memorable musical numbers, fun characters and a zany plot with a satisfying ending, Bells Are Ringing (1960) is sure to please.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Kevin ThomasVincente Minnelli's film might have benefited from less emphasis on dialogue and more on the musical numbers ("Just in Time" and "The Party's Over" among them), but Holliday is adorable and efforlessly "real" in one of the best roles of her sadly abbreviated career.
Chicago Reader - 6/10 by Dave KehrEngaging entertainment, but far from Minnelli’s peak.
Slant Magazine - 4/10 by Jeremiah KippIt has the unfortunate effect of being a movie that seems stuck on a Broadway stage.
Las Vegas Review-Journal - 4/10 by Carol ClingOne of Hollywood's last old-fashioned Broadway adaptations, with Holliday as endearing as ever. Not exactly Minnelli's finest, but well worth catching for musicals fans.
User Review - 10/10 by Dana HJudy Holliday-Dean Martin... amazing score, funny plot, and great performances. Need I say more?
