The film doesn't have much plot but the dialogue is bright, and the roles tailor-made for stars Spencer Tracy and Katharine Hepburn. Hepburn demonstrates with physical strength what she proved in Adam's Rib with intellect, that women can be equal to men ...read the complete Pat and Mike movie review at EmanuelLevy.com (Emanuel Levy)

This is one of my all-time favorite movies.
For one thing, it is laugh-out-loud funny in its own special way. A lot of the humor derives from the characters themselves, who are innately funny without being aware that they are. For example, Spencer ...

PAT & MIKE is an inspiring look at the relationship between a gifted athlete (Katherine Hepburn) and her coach (Spencer Tracy), determined to get her back on her game. Pat's fiancee, Collier Weld (William Ching) is the one setback that keeps her from ...

This is a disarming little movie about a woman athlete and her coach. It is a somewhat romantic comedy but it is more about developing a female athlete and coaching her to be a winner. Katherine Hepburn was apparently a terrific athlete and Garson and ...

This is a fun film for sports fans. It is only unfortunate that it is so sickenly anti-feminist until the very end. People act as if a woman had no business being an athlete, as if she had no business being a person of any influence at all. I didn't live ...
