"In Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, Mr. Almodóvar sets out to charm rather than shock. That he succeeds should not come as a surprise. The common denominator of all Almodóvar films, even the one that winds up in an ecstatic murder-suicide pact, is their good humor." — Vincent Canby, New York Times
