"Ranks among Robert Altman's best work ever."
— - Jonathan Foreman, New York Post
"Robert Altman and a ridiculously talented group of English actors have crafted an upstairs-downstairs comedy of true originality -- a British costume film that's funny but not at all fusty."
— Carla Meyer, San Francisco Chronicle
"Opulently designed, meticulously directed, cleverly written and wittily acted by a cast as polished as the floors."
— Rex Reed, Observer
"A virtuoso ensemble piece to rival the director's "Nashville" and 'Short Cuts' in its masterly interweaving of multiple characters and subplots."
— Stephen Holden, New York Times
"A love affair between performer and filmmaker. The director shows off his ardor by eliciting from his actors aspects of their gifts that they themselves may not have known they had."
— Peter Rainer, New York Magazine
