    How many licks does it take to get to the center of Dustin Hoffman's tootsie hole? One...two...three...(crunch) three.

    Saw this in class. It had an interesting premise. It didn't have a strong plot, but it was the subplot's that kept it strong.

    An extraordinary fresh point of view into the same old "struggling-new-yorker-actor" with a performance like I've never seen before in my life from that guy called Dustin Hoffman. Out of this world. I usually refuse to watch pre-late-80s movies for some stupid reason or another and I even flagged this one as "Not interested" but I couldn't be more delighted as I was watching this from the first scene to the last one. Everything in this movie was pitch-perfect and hilarious, I kept on laughing over and over again, not only at Hoffman's mesmerizing abilities but also at Bill Murray's excellent character and Teri Garr's annoying-drama-queen extravaganza.

    Marvelous!
    A truly fun experience for a life time!

    Not quite as hysterical as it promised, but I still LOL'd a few times. Hoffman's genius, and I think I liked Teri Garr more than Jessica Lange, who actually had a more well developed character, but I still don't think I understand the flack for her Oscar win...

    Dustin Hoffman is terriffic in; "Tootsie."
    An actor that can not attain work as a man turns to becoming a lady and working on a soap opera...it is too funny and sweet. Jessica Lange shines as a fellow actress on the soap which Hoffman takes a fancy to.....check this comedy gem out!!!

    Pretty good as the origina; guy-dressed-as-a-girl movie. Hoffman made a very ugly woman, but still believable!

    Tootsie if a smart and hilarious film with a terrific lead performance by Dustin Hoffman. The plot has been used before so it wasn't that original, but it still managed to squeeze a couple of jokes out of me. The supporting cast was also excellent.

    Hoffman in one of his best (if not his best) roles. Lange was great and Coleman does his wonderful turn and the jerk director! Bill Murray has a GREAT bit part that only makes the movie better.

    Dustin Hoffman is terrific in this hilarious and touching comedy. As an out-of-work actor who poses as a woman to pay the bills, Hoffman winds up being the biggest soap opera star in the history of TV. You can just imagine the problems he runs into as a result. Very funny stuff.

    Hoffman is perfect as Tootsie. He is one talanted man. It's a great story and it's as good to day as it was back then!

    Ahh, a gender bending flick. This is actually a really good movie if you can stand to watch Dustin Hoffman in drag.

    A real drag...lol...Dustin Hoffman is Tootsie, the female alter ego of his character, a second rate actor with no prospects. But as Tootsie, a whole new world opens up for him. Plenty of funny moments in a relatively fast paced comedy.

    You're right again, Cath. This is probably my favorite Hoffman film. In fact it's just one of my favorite films, period!!
    I'd rather watch Tootsie nonstop for a hundred straight showings than have to sit through the preview of Norbit again.
    (Ooo think I'll use that as my review. lol)
