One of the brightest, most delightful satiric comedies since It Happened One Night.
75
Perhaps the best Hudson-Day film.
70
Saucy, sophisticated 1961 comedy. [26 Apr 1996, p.F22]
70
Another glossy, witty battle-of-the-sexes comedy featuring the squeaky-clean Pillow Talk pairing of Rock Hudson and Doris Day. [28 Jan 2006, p.53]
70
This is a funny, most-of-the-time engaging, smartly produced show. Farce has Rock Hudson as would-be conqueror of Doris Day, who as the victim of a who's-who deception plays brinkmanship with surrender.
50
Broadly played, in the 50s telegraphing-every-thought comic style.
40
One of the queasier Rock Hudson-Doris Day comedies.
