Fonda, Lily Tomlin and Dolly Parton are a formidably charismatic triumvirate.

While the lengthy fantasy sequences take up too much screen time, Fonda, Tomlin and Parton are delightful as three different types of women uniting to fight the patriarchy. The film's subtle racial and class critiques are most welcome.

It’s a pity Higgins didn’t survive to demonstrate what he could do beyond the confines of the very mainstream features he completed...

As for Dolly, well, she's just about the most pleasant surprise to hit the movies since popcorn. She's smart, sassy, Southern and just sensational And the camera loves her.

The last hour is humorous, but it doesn't deliver on the promise of the first.

A delightfully funny and crisply written film.

Instead of blazing a trail, [Colin Higgins] has opted for the beaten track.

A good rowdy time.

Nine to Five still offers the best laughs of any movie this season.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 3, 2023
Nine to Five is a genuine good time that pokes fun at a common target in corporate society, the boss.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 3, 2023
Nine to Five is so caught up in its own fantasies that it keeps failing to create believable fantasies for all the rest of us.

Nine to Five is a lot of fun.
| Mar 3, 2023
A movie that's neither carefully observed enough to pass for satire, nor daring and iconoclastic enough to make it a subversive comedy.
| Mar 3, 2023
A highly unusual case of a Hollywood comedy that's fun -- and yet still makes some intelligent points.
| Mar 3, 2023
Its farcical script wears a little thin at times, but director Colin Higgins scrambles adroitly.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 3, 2023
It's basically a harmless harangue that never fails to amuse.
| Mar 3, 2023
The script has to be considered a failure. Not so the acting. Tomlin is brilliant.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 3, 2023
Nine to Five always remains funny and never becomes preachy, a real mark of talent and success.
| Mar 3, 2023
If you love good comedy and outstanding comic performances, Nine to Five shouldn't be missed.
| Mar 3, 2023
This one is hardcore, commercial madcap comedy with a slick style, a laugh-a-minute pace, and a very strong trace of television in the forms of its humor.
