Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
Mediocre score, mediocre MGM musical.
Kansas City Kansan
Les Girls is an exceptionally tasty musical morsel that is in the best tradition of the Metro studio.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
While Gene Kelly's hoofing remains delightful, he delivers only a half-hearted performance in a rather sketchy role. It's Kay Kendall who steals the show with a highly amusing turn.

The results are full of charm and sparkle, and Cole Porter's songs are worthy of his name.

Rating: 5/5 --
Comédia inventiva e divertida que conta com ótimos números musicais, bela direção de arte, figurinos luxuosos e - o mais importante - com o imenso carisma de Kelly e suas três parceiras de cena.
Cinema em Cena
Rating: B --
A stylized, unconventional musical for MGM, director Cukor, and Gene Kelly.

Description by OLDIES.com:
"Bravo," say critics about an entertainer's tell-all memoir chronicling her days in the cabaret act Barry Nichols and Les Girls. "Libel!," cries another of Les Girls, setting in motion a talons-and-fact-baring litigation that proves Les Girls will be girls.
