"A solid Hollywood landmark."
— Peter Bradshaw, Guardian
"50 years on there's still an infectious charm about Oklahoma!"
— David Mattin, BBC.com
"A full-bodied Oklahoma! has been brought forth in this film to match in vitality, eloquence and melody any musical this reviewer has ever seen."
— Bosley Crowther, New York Times
"The film is so richly layered that multiple viewings become compulsive -- you think it's all there in front of you, but every time you revisit it, you notice something more, and finish with a desire to go back again."
