===Critical response===
{{Rotten Tomatoes prose|91|7.8|53|consensus=''Tootsie'' doesn't squander its high-concept comedy premise, with fine dialogue and sympathetic treatment of the characters|access-date=September 21, 2023|ref=y}} {{Metacritic film prose|88|21|ref=yes|access-date=September 21, 2023}}

[[Roger Ebert]] praised the film, awarding it four out of four stars and observing: "''Tootsie'' is the kind of Movie with a capital M that they used to make in the 1940s, when they weren't afraid to mix up absurdity with seriousness, social comment with farce, and a little heartfelt tenderness right in there with the laughs. This movie gets you coming and going...The movie also manages to make some lighthearted but well-aimed observations about sexism. It also pokes satirical fun at soap operas, New York show business agents and the Manhattan social pecking order."<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/tootsie-1982 |title=Tootsie |work=[[Chicago Sun-Times]] |author=Roger Ebert | author-link = Roger Ebert |date=December 17, 1982 |access-date=2007-12-22 }}</ref>
