Leave your thoughts about Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.
| Filmcritic.comChris CabinThere is not one single moment when these characters, or this rightful classic, wear out their welcome. |
| GuardianPeter BradshawThose two faces are incredible in juxtaposition: Russell is worldly, amused, intensely in touch: Monroe is sublimely unfocused and beatific. A joy. |
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrA landmark encounter in the battle of the sexes. |
| Kansas City KansanSteve CrumMarilyn + diamonds + Russell = a musical gem of its time. |
| Village VoiceNick PinkertonThere's more warmth in [Russell's] fondly bemused looks at Monroe, whose friendship is a front-row ticket to the best show in town. |

| Daily Record (UK)Grant LauchlanOne of the most charming, entertaining and colourful musicals of the 1950s. |
