It is delightful entertainment, novel and engaging.

Variety
It is an acute, duplicitous, discomfiting movie whose message, finally, is that all times are tough for the people who must live through them, and glow golden only for those who survive them, or imagine them.

LIFE
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Even when he's not deliberately doing Berkeley takeoffs, (Ken Russell's) camera is so joyless that it undermines every scene.

Rating: 3/5 --
More a lesson in style (Ken Russell) than anything memorable, even with Twiggy.

It's a delight, one of the high points of Russell's extravagantly uneven career.

Rating: B- --
Ken Russell's film version of the popular stage musical is, as expected, extravagant and campy in style, but it has charm and fashion model Twiggy shows interesting screen presence.
