Leave your thoughts about Operation Petticoat.
| Reeling ReviewsRobin CliffordA n ice pairing of the talents of Cary Grant and Tony Curtis |
| Film School RejectsCole AbaiusWithout a true plot to speak of, you really watch the film for the comic set ups that all have fairly quick payoffs. |
| Chicago ReaderDon DrukerBlake Edwards directs with his customary wit, breeziness, and acute sense of pacing. |
| FanboyNation.comSean MulvihillWhile I think Operation Petticoat has a number of issues - it's too long, overstuffed, and rather buttoned down - I still respect as it a piece of cinematic history. |
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseHasn't aged especially well. Still, on the strength of Grant and co-lead Tony Curtis, Edwards' film remains a diverting enough escape from reality. [Blu-ray] |
| The DissolveNathan RabinThere's a distinct lack of forward momentum plaguing Operation Petticoat, which takes forever to get going, and even then only moves in fits and starts, plot-wise. |
| User ReviewRenee -~~~CARY GRANT~~~ ~~THAT'S ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW!!~~~ |
| User ReviewChristopher MGreat classic and funny movie. The part where they paint the submarine pink is hillarious. |
| User ReviewAshley HCray Grant, Tony Curtis, and a pink submarine - what more could you want? |
| User ReviewSofie LNow this is what comedy's supposed be: really funny. |
