Reviews

"This pleasant but predictable affair does one thing very well: showcasing the versatility of Chiwetel Ejiofor. The London actor can be seen as Denzel Washington's detective sidekick in"

   - Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

"Ejiofor's polished, energetic performance -- including several song-and-dance numbers -- enlivens what's basically comfort food in movie form, but sometimes comfort food is exactly what the doctor ordered."

   - Maitland McDonagh, TV Guide

"Directed by Julian Jarrold and co-written by Tim Firth ("

   - Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune

"The movie is in the naughty-but-nice British tradition in which characters walk on the wild side but never seem to do anything else there."

   - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

"Don't let the title trick you. The British comedy Kinky Boots is probably the most kinkless film featuring fetish wear ever to strut its stilettoed heels across the silver screen."

   - Winda Benedetti, Seattle Post-Intelligencer
