Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Settings are inexpensive but sufficient for the needs. Production values, in general, however, aid materially in making this picture a winner.

rotten:
Even though this film is taken from a modest stage play of a few seasons back, its humors are as stale and mechanical as those of the oldest such farce.
– Bosley Crowther,
New York Times,
25 Mar 2006
rotten:
One of the lesser products of Val Lewton's years as the head of RKO's horror-film unit.
