I can’t even remember the last time I watched it: certainly at the peak of Williams' health. Today it looks slightly with a well-known accent, but at the time of its release – unusual and technological. Family is something for which it is worth making any sacrifices, something for which you need to fight and struggle until the very end. Translated to English
To make a good movie about divorce that you can watch with your children, and the children will love the film despite the fact that it is like that… this is genius. It wasn’t enough to get to 10, I guess I would like to be completely happy, but there is sadness here that could have been covered with a sequel, but it didn’t happen. Translated to English
A wonderful family comedy with the inimitable Williams, whether in the role of Mrs. Doubtfire or not. While watching, such warmth envelops me, so much kindness pours through the screen. They knew how to make family films before. Translated to English
Williams is wonderful. The comedy about divorce and love for children came out "realistic", without outweighing joy or sadness. Robin’s metamorphoses amuse me in every scene, and I especially enjoyed the beautiful ending. Translated to English
The film deservedly received an Oscar for "Best Makeup". The acting (of all) is beyond praise. I recommend watching the original to 100% enjoy Robin Williams' voice acting as himself (no pun intended). He’s a great actor. You look into his eyes "pierced" with pain and believe. Translated to English
The plot hooked me with the family atmosphere and its filming. Robin Williams, of course, pleased me more with his acting and jokes. Translated to English
A dramatic comedy with Robin Williams. And he was perfect for the role. Translated to English
