MCT:September 12, 2008absolutely love it....especially because of garbo's role...very unlike her, but still perfect for her...

MCT:July 29, 2008One of my fav Garbo performances, it almost is tongue in cheek because Garbo was often the serious one, a doomed temptress or lover who doomed others. Here she gets to take that and seriousness and spin it, playing with her tight lipped smirk and stretching it to a wonderful smile that we all knew she had.

Wonderful romantic comedy featuring Garbo at her best and a special mention to Melvyn Douglas for a superb job.

Although "Ninotchka" was purely political at the time, it has endured today as a classic comedy. Garbo gives a great performance as the stern communist, Ninotchka. A must-see for anyone who loves Garbo or classic comedies!

An highly entertaining film and a vision packed with humor of the international relations of the late 1930s. The scenes in the USSR specially are a vibrant testimony of Lubitsch wit and visual talent. It is also very pleasant to see Paris at the peak of its appeal before the war changed it for ever.

This is absolute proof that Greta Garbo can not only sizzle in dramatic, sultry movies, but is a comedic explosion when given the chance. The dialogue is hilariously funny.

I definitely gotta say that it's educated films like this that give filmmakers and good writers a great name. It's a wonderful and hilarious story, with the typical Brackett and Wilder wit in its dialogue, and fantastic performances. I'm really not a fan of old movies like this, and it was my first Garbo film, but in about 15 minutes I was completely sold and by the end I was very satisfied. To those people I know who hate "romantic comedies" I say you need to see this and other films of the neighboring decades before you can really say it. Very good stuff!

Garbo, cool and detached, the stringent Russian official that she is...softens and falls in love...Very entertaining! Wonderful to watch Garbo!

I really LOVE this movie... I think Greta is SOOOO funny. She have a stiff but comic touch to her character, Ninotchka.

Greta Garbo is charming as the icy Russian who thaws for a Parisian playboy. The romance between them is funny and charming. Once she succumbs to the charms of capitalism, the movie loses what made the romance unique. Still a masterpiece.

one of the best satirical looks at communism made by hollywood and sadly garbo's only comedy, deserves much more than what was owed but still serving a great slice of true blue comedy

I love this movie! Ninotchka was so hilarious in the beginning, and towards the end, became as sweet as sugar.

Sparkling Lubitsch comedy. Garbo proves a terrific comic foil and manages to be alluring, even while sporting the eighth-most unflattering hairdo in Hollywood history.
