The Fabulous Baker Boys Reviews
Film Threat
Rory L. Aronsky
Writer/director Steve Kloves (this was his first film) keeps his characters grounded as people...
New York Times
Janet Maslin
It's a film specializing in smoky, down-at-the-heels glamour, and in the kind of smart, slangy dialogue that sounds right without necessarily having much to say.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
This is one of the movies they will use as a document, years from now, when they begin to trace the steps by which Pfeiffer became a great star.
Fantastica Daily
Chuck O'Leary
A completely engaging, thoroughly entertaining romantic comedy structured entirely on the strength of its main characters. One of the ten-best of 1989.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Kloves' directorial debut features three superlative performances by Jeff and Beau Bridges (as bickering siblings) and particularly Michelle Pfeiffer, who's at her sexiest with a show-stopping number atop a piano in red dress!
Variety
Variety Staff
The fun part is seeing it all play out, thanks to a standout cast and first-time director Steve Kloves' skill in handling them.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
A thoroughly enjoyable entertainment that should play just about everybody's strings right. Kloves proves to be quite a plucker.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
The Fabulous Baker Boys is like a beloved movie from the glory days of Hollywood. It transports you. It's an American rhapsody.
New Yorker
Pauline Kael
Writer-director Steve Kloves glides you through a romantic fantasy that has a forties-movie sultriness and an eighties movie-struck melancholy.
Southern Voice (Atlanta)
Terry Francis
Technically and emotionally, The Fabulous Baker Boys is the work of a rich and surprising intellect.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
All three stars are superb, but it's Pfeiffer's smart and sexy performance that quickly became a thing of legend.
El Nuevo Herald (Miami)
Rene Jordan
Almost the best movie of the year. [Full review in Spanish]
IONCINEMA.com
Nicholas Bell
Smooth, sultry, and tinged with an inescapable sadness, this is a film worth revisiting.

Josh Larsen
Pfeiffer is like a nightclub singer the catwoman dragged in...
