Variety
It is literate, bawdy, sophisticated, sensual, cynical, heart-warming, and disturbingly thought-provoking. Full Review
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Chicago Reader
It's entertaining and stylish, though maybe not quite as serious as it wants to be. Full Review
Kim Newman
Empire
It stands as a hugely enjoyable, occasionally chilling, musical. Full Review
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
This is no ordinary musical. Part of its success comes because it doesn't fall for the old clich that musicals have to make you happy. Instead of cheapening the movie version by lightening its load of despair, director Bob Fosse has gone right to the bleak heart of the material and stayed there well enough to win an Academy Award for Best Director.

The New York Times
Cabaret is one of those immensely gratifying imperfect works in which from beginning to end you can literally feel a movie coming to life. Full Review
