Adam's Rib is a bright comedy success, belting over a succession of sophisticated laughs.

The performances (not least from Wayne and Hagen) are matchless.

Of Adam's Rib we might say...that it isn't solid food but it certainly is meaty and juicy and comically nourishing.
Bosley Crowther, New York Times

The film is a classic, and deservedly so: the conjunction of Tracy's sly listlessness and Hepburn's stridency defines 'chemistry' in the movies.
