The greater story is sacrificed for schticky gags about a guy dressing as an old woman.

Sit-com stuff, then, with laboured farcical interludes, and a mushy post-feminist sensibility. Funny notwithstanding.

The dress, the mask and Mrs. Doubtfire's gentility are inherently limiting, but nothing holds Mr. Williams back when he's on a roll.

Although overly sappy in places and probably 20 minutes too long, this Robin Williams-in-drag vehicle provides the comic a slick surface for doing his shtick, within a story possessing broad family appeal.

The film is not as amusing as the premise, and there were long stretches when I'd had quite enough of Mrs. Doubtfire.

Chris Columbus' only good movie.

A genuinely funny comedy.

Modern comedy classic w/Robin Williams in and out of drag.

Mrs. Doubtfire is by no means a bad movie-going experience and still holds up as vintage Robin Williams, but it's certainly an odd idea the more you think about it.

I've rarely laughed so much at a movie I generally disliked.

Williams has to break out of a second-rate "Tootsie" imitation, ankles clamped in pathos and face covered in latex. He pulls it off in the end, but it's not pretty.
