"Mr. Almodovar has expressed the idea of life as a divine form of acting before, but never with the kind of clarity and beauty that glitter here." ★★★★ Janet Maslin, New York Times
"An emotionally satisfying and brilliantly played take on the ups and (mostly) downs of a group of less-than-typical female friends." Jonathan Holland, Variety
"Pedro Almodóvar's best film to date, a heart-breaking paean to femininity, the maternal instinct and the thirst for drama." Ed Gonzalez, Slant Magazine
