It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Reporter Rob Salinger (Dudley Moore) is married to ambitious Micki (Ann Reinking). He wants a baby--she doesn't. He meets sweet Maude (Amy Irving) and starts having an affair with her. Then he ends up getting them both pregnant! OK bigamy isn't funny--but this is just a movie that's not to be taken seriously. It's (for Blake Edwards) very sweet-natured and gentle. It does have his usual slapstick humor but also has some nice funny verbal jokes and is very romantic. Moore is great--he tones down his usual manic persona and gives a very affecting performance. Richard Mulligan also is great as his boss and pal Leo. Amy Irving is just incredibly beautiful and sweet. There's also a hysterical visit to a doctors office and the end when Moore goes full blast in a hospital. There's also a bit with nude male models with guns that's an eyeopener. This is far from perfect however. It takes its own sweet time getting started and doesn't even have an ending--it just sort of stops. Also Reinking is pretty bad in her role. She manages to overact AND underact at the same time--but she's known more for her dancing then acting. All in all a sweet, funny and romantic comedy. I give it an 8.

A must see for ANY Dudley Moore fan!! This movie is full of laughs and touching moments..this movie also stars the late great Richard Mulligan of SOAP and Empty Nest Fame!!..If you like the comedy of Arthur, Money Pit, or Private Benjamin you'll like this one...A 10 all the way!!!!!

"Micki + Maude" is a warm, lovely little comedy, so sweet-natured and appealing that it's hard to resist. We identify completely with Dudley Moore, who honestly loves both his wives; his behavior never seems smug or calculating. He just can't choose between them, because he cares deeply for both of them. And because of that, the movie becomes emotionally involving. Warning: this isn't the kind of comedy that will make you laugh so much you won't be able to take a breath; it's the kind of comedy that will leave you, repeatedly, with a goofy grin on your face.

Likable Blake Edwards comedy with Moore who plays a frustrated news reporter with two wives, who are both pregnant at the same time. Yikes! This farce is pleasant and Moore carries it beautifully with his usual timing and flair. One of his best!
