Owen Gleiberman Entertainment Weekly Rated: C- •  Sep 7, 2011 Full Review David
Ansen Newsweek Ready to Wear is all appetizers: the main course never arrives.
Still, the critical savagery puzzles me. Altman's movie may be indefensible, but
it's not unenjoyable. Aug 18, 2008 Full Review Janet Maslin New York Times
Though it credits Mr. Altman and Barbara Shulgasser as writers, this film seems
practically scriptless, to the point where much of it plays like a first
rehearsal. Rated: 1.5/5 •  May 17, 2004 Full Review Hilary Mantel The Spectator
You can't satirize industries that are inherently self-satirizing. Aug 30, 2018

AUDIENCE REVIEWS

View All (167) audience reviews
Blu B It's clearly trying to satire the fashion industry simliar to something
like Nashville. But it never makes all these subplots into a cohesive narrative,
despite some decent acting. The cinematography is ok. Some elements are a lot
stronger than others such as the memorable setting, lavish location/sets,
costumes, and it's quite colorful and pops. The camerawork is pretty decent as
well. It keeps you interested just enough probably longer than it should through
the meandering and flat humor (Dog Poop is the running gag). Eventually though
the subpar pacing and editing start to show by the latter half of the second act
and it just feels like it starts to really drag with no payoff. There are
moments where the satire breaks through. The ending is pretty decent and
probably the most though provoking scene, but the rest feels dragged out,
bloated, and some story arcs it's not really clear what they contribute to the
satire on fashion. Robert/Robbins fling doesn't really add anything, the mogul
accidental death/love triangle doesn't really add much either and feels like
they could've been cut completely. Although the acting is pretty decent in those
scenes so its kind of a double edged sword. This is about 30-40 minutes too long
overall. And the soundtrack is kind of a mess from 80's music, generic
international tracks, and others that never really forms anything unique and
just feels like a mess overall. This needed to trim out some story arcs and have
better satire at the end of the day. I can't really recommend this to anyone
even fans of the actors because there is so many that no one actor gets that
much screentime. And Altman has done much better. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5
out of 5 stars 10/14/23 Full Review Gareth v It's hard to write a satire around
an industry that does a pretty job of doing it organically. Poor effort all
round. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/19/23 Full Review Audience
Member Boring and lifeless. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member When you have to
force yourself not to daydream while watching a film, that's a huge sign of how
uninteresting the film is. Pret-a-porter (Ready to wear) tries to be something
and fails miserably. Thank the heavens for its excellent soundtrack. Rated 1.5/5
