Variety
Rating: 6/10 --
...rather tame and superficial by today's standards: a gentle, sentimental comedy on the subject of interracial marriage.

Rating: 4/5 --
The film may have a foregone conclusion, but it's worth watching as the acting is so good.

Rating: 7/10 --
...most notable for being a metatextual commentary on the onscreen/offscreen romance of Tracy and Hepburn.

The Retro Set
Rating: 3/4 --
Initially breezy without ever sacrificing any of its points, the picture eventually resorts to a series of static speeches. Luckily, the actors carry the day, particularly Sidney Poitier, Cecil Kellaway and, taking MVP honors, Spencer Tracy.

Creative Loafing
The movie insidiously charms us into ignoring its defects, and for this the credit must go to a superb cast.

Product Description:
A liberal white couple (Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy, in Tracy's last appearance) put their platitudes to the test. They always taught their daughter (Katharine Houghton, Hepburn's niece) that all people are created equal, regardless of race or religion... until she unexpectedly brings home a black doctor (Poitier) and announces that they're engaged. Academy Award Nominations: 10, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor--Spencer Tracy.
