Dinner at Eight Ratings & Reviews
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Taking advantage of MGM's talent pool, George Cukor directed this witty 1933 comedy with a big-gun cast that includes Marie Dressler, John Barrymore, Wallace Beery, and Jean Harlow.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Feels like a very good, very entertaining movie, but Grand Hotel feels like something truly special. However, the good in Dinner at Eight is very good indeed.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Features a stellar cast of all-star MGM veterans who all know how to overact.
Film Geek Central
Austin Kennedy
It's a little rough around the edges, but the performances from these legendary actors really make this movie worthy of your time
Slant Magazine
Jeremiah Kipp
The dinner party that closes Dinner at Eight wouldn't feel like dancing at the end of the world without Renault's final gesture.
Las Vegas Review-Journal
Carol Cling
Scintillating '30s comedy with an all-star cast and quip-happy script.
Kalamazoo Gazette
James Sanford
the kind of smart, upscale adult comedy-drama that would never get made these days
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
A sparkling script and game efforts from an all-star cast easily overcome any signs of creakiness.
DVDJournal.com
Betsy Bozdech
At its poignant heart, it's a character drama about the interwoven lives and loves of a small cross-section of 1930s upper-crust Manhattanites.
The Hollywood Reporter
THR Staff
Put Dinner at Eight down as an exceptionally fine directorial job and place Cukor higher on your list of directors as a result of it.
Cine-Mundial
Francisco J. Ariza
Several superb movies in one. [Full review in Spanish]
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
A deluxe flipbook of caricatures, a blatant pageant of studio thoroughbreds, a study of tuxedoed, bejeweled pretense
Filmsite
Tim Dirks
A masterfully-directed comedy, Dinner at Eight (1933), filled with a tremendous cast of stars all invited
Gone With The Twins
Mike Massie
Audiences of the era may have been fascinated to see the inner workings of the upper crust, but these are painfully dull, generic ordeals.
