Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: C+ --
Though not one of Minnelli (or MGM's) best musicals, this pastice is worth seeing for the dancing of Astarire and Kelly (the first and only time), Fanny Brice's shtick, and Judy Garland satirizing Greer Garson

Large-scale musical with hit or miss tunes
Film Journal International
Takes some of Hollywood's grandest silk purses and makes a bunch of sow's ears.

[M]uch of the film's visual style seemed derived from Salvador Dali's fashionable dream paintings...
New York Times
Technically it's magnificent overkill, from Minnelli's swooping crane shots to the turning, floating 'Hello Dali!' carnival-wedding-cake scenic design to the intense Technicolor that burned holes in retinas.

...an elaborate showcase for the exceptional musical and comedy talents of MGM's biggest stars, with no messy story line or characterizations getting in the way.

Description by OLDIES.com:
With a Who's Who of credited and uncredited Hollywood talents, this all-star revue is heaven to fans of musicals. Fred Astaire dazzles once, twice...four numbers in all. Red Skelton reprises his funny Guzzler's Gin skit. Esther Williams swims, Lena Horne sings and Judy Garland spoofs snobbery. There's Verdi opera and Fanny Brice vaudeville. Patter and pantomime. And "The Babbitt and the Bromide," with Gene Kelly joining Astaire in their first-ever screen pairing. What a show! The man called Flo must be proud.
Product Description:
This MGM spectacular features many of the greatest stars of the theater and screen. A lavish salute to Broadway's most opulent producer.
Description by Warner Home Video:
Ziegfeld Follies
A dead showman looks down upon the earth and dreams of his perfect show.
