Blake Edwards, who managed to capture middle-aged angst so well in 10, managed to offend a variety of constituencies with this sporadically funny take on that reliable laugh-getter, bigamy. Well, not bigamy, technically: Dudley Moore is only married to one woman, Micki (Ann Reinking), but she's too busy to have the baby he longs for. He winds up in an affair with Maude (Amy Irving), who gets pregnant, thus satisfying his paternal urge. Except that then Micki announces that she, too, is pregnant, doubling his pleasure--and his problems. Twin pregnancies lead to a variety of complications, particularly because Maude's father is a professional wrestler. And when both women wind up delivering in the same hospital on the same day, well, director Blake Edwards does what he can to make this sordid situation seem comic--which it is as long as you don't think about it too much. --Marshall Fine

Rating:  - "Here kitty kitty..."
Micki and Maude is so funny, original, and heartwarming film about a man who is married to two women and trying to keep the truth from slipping out. Dudley Moore is perfectly cast as Rob, Amy Irving and Ann Reinkling star as Rob's two brides. Directed by Blake Edwards, Micki and Maude is just one laugh and mishap after the other. I love, love, love this film, after all these years, this movie is still a riot. I highly recommend this comedic look at a bigamist with a heart of gold. Enjoy!
Rating:  - The heartwarming topic of bigamy
I picked up this movie after not seeing it in nearly 20 years. I didn't understand it then, being just as kid, and I still don't understand it now as an adult.
Dudley Moore made a career out of playing lovable, everyman characters who have human foibles (alcoholism for example). In this case it was infidelity. Dudley plays Rob, a man married to Micki, a powerhouse attorney who is not ready for (nor seems to want) children despite his wants. Loosing his interest because his wife doesn't ... Read More
Rating: - Rooting for the Villain
Dudley Moore is the villain in this one but it is hard not to root for him. He plays the supportive husband of Ann Reinking.
All he wants to do is be a father but his wife is busy working on a political campaign. She promises they will settle down when it is over. When it ends, she is instead rewarded with a judgeship in another city which she has to take. That leaves Dudley back home and lonely, mourning for the kids he is sure he will never have.
That's when he meets Amy Irving. ... Read More

Rating:  - "You're my woman...and I'm your man "
Sorry, if you missed the humor in my review title. It's actually a quote from the film itself. And I don't memorize line from movies, unless they've really made some kind of impression , on me. "Micki and Maude" was impressionable , because it's hilarious. Not hilarious, like "The Jerk", or "Dumb and Dumber". It's not that kind of film. Rather it's hilarious, in the sense of it's dry wit and added humor ,into everyday life situations. Not overplayed or over the top. Hollywood doesn't make too many films like ... Read More
