Kiss Me Kate Ratings & Reviews
Illustrated Daily News (Los Angeles)
Mildred Norton
As the feuding pair, Howard Keel and Kathryn Grayson handle their roles superbly.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A mostly zippy showbiz paean.
DVDJournal.com
Betsy Bozdech
A fun, frothy, Technicolored romp of a musical that ... is still as entertaining as they come.
Hollywood Report Card
Ross Anthony
A little weak in acting at first, but warms up nicely. Quite entertaining. And even more welcoming in 3D.
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
The theatrical antics are a bit forced and the musical numbers aren't the best in the history of musical cinema, but this still stands as an 'important' film of its era, albeit a minor and relatively forgettable one.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
One of the all-time best movie musicals, with Fosse choreography and Porter's vunderbar music.
Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)
Bob Bloom
A fun musical with tuneful Cole Porter songs and a fun script.
New York Times
Bosley Crowther
The picture's brio is quaint and disarming, for the most part getting its laughs when it needs them.
Compuserve
Harvey S. Karten
Thanks to the genius of George Sidney at the helm, there's never a dull moment nor a single instance of a song or dance simply shoehorned in with no bearing on the story. So brush up your Porter if you must have a background before seeing this, and go!

...Kiss Me Kate had nothing on Singin' in the Rain.
