Critic Reviews of "Operation Petticoat"
Don Druker Chicago ReaderMay 15, 2012Blake Edwards directs with his customary wit, breeziness, and acute sense of pacing.
Variety Staff VarietyJuly 07, 2010Operation Petticoat has no more weight than a sackful of feathers, but it has a lot of laughs.
Geoff Andrew Time OutJanuary 26, 2006Not unpleasant, but the situations (including the inevitable invasion of women aboard the sub) are horribly familiar, and the dialogue none too inspired.
Nathan Rabin The DissolveAugust 04, 2014There's a distinct lack of forward momentum plaguing Operation Petticoat, which takes forever to get going, and even then only moves in fits and starts, plot-wise.
Peter Canavese Groucho ReviewsJuly 21, 2014Hasn't aged especially well. Still, on the strength of Grant and co-lead Tony Curtis, Edwards' film remains a diverting enough escape from reality. [Blu-ray]
Cole Abaius Film School RejectsFebruary 11, 2009Without a true plot to speak of, you really watch the film for the comic set ups that all have fairly quick payoffs.
Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.ComJuly 17, 2005With shining, contarsting turns from Cary Grant and Tony Curtis, Blake Edwards's slick and funny military comedy was one of 1959's most popular films and one of Grant's biggest commercial hits in a long and brilliant career.
Robin Clifford Reeling ReviewsNovember 30, 2003A n ice pairing of the talents of Cary Grant and Tony Curtis
Ken Hanke Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)November 20, 2003Splendid, if a little long, service comedy from Edwards.
Widgett Walls Needcoffee.comJune 03, 2003Ah, Blake Edwards. I remember when he was not just funny--but really funny.
