The Birdcage offers nearly two-hours of refreshing entertainment, standing especially on the amazing performances of the actors, of which I must highlight Nathan Lane and Hank Azaria, who entertained me royally. Filled with humorous situations, disguises, mistakes, pratfalls and raised little fingers, the film wipes away sexual and religious prejudices as well as weighs in on the political scene, all in a very intelligent manner. In short, a well and honestly made comedy that definitely deserves the audience's attention. (06.09.2016)

I remember this film back from the old times when I used to go to a video rental store to borrow VHS. I even remember that it was one of those films I was even then unable to watch till the end. The Birdcage mocks gays in a sort of distinguished way, as one of the main characters is played by Robin Williams who is really enjoying it. However, just from the theme itself it is apparent that this film will be either enormously fun due to the thing that it is cleverly and inoffensively mocking, or enormously boring. For me, it was unfortunately the latter. (15.01.2019)

It is well shot, unnecessarily pushing the envelope most of the time, but this film actually disappointed me because it is nothing more than an overly stretched attempt to please the partner's parents or rather the partner herself. However, the excellently chosen actors in the main roles do help the film a lot, making it enjoyable thanks to them. (24.05.2015)

A successful comedy with many very good moments, most of which are credited to Nathan Lane (Every one of his hysterical performances is worth it... Especially when he tries to act like a man!). However, everything I saw in the first hour was overwhelmed by the final dinner together, during which Gene Hackman admired Mrs. Coleman/Goldman, Robin Williams was constantly collapsing, the ultra-gay Hank Azaria as the majordomo Agador Spartacus was hitting the floor because he wasn't used to wearing shoes... It was something unreal. (24.05.2012)
