The greatest credit for the implacable engagement that the film creates for its audience must go to the director, Mike Nichols. Nichols makes a stunning film bow with Virginia Woolf.

Edward Albee's vitriolic stage portrayal of domestic blisslessness translated grainily and effectively to the screen.
Geoff Andrew, Time Out

'You have ugly talents,' George says, almost admiringly, to Martha. So does this movie.
