Kine Weekly wrote: "A comedy melodrama, adapted from the successful play, which has polished technique, and is well characterised. The direction, however, is not good, the main issues being rather obscured by irrelevant detail. The picture, nevertheless, has its bright moments, and carries many popular thrills. ... Dennis Neilson-Terry is not too well cast as Brent, is a little too facetious, but is easy in his manner, and has a likeable personality. Betty Stockfeld, who has charm and a most intriguing speaking voice, is altogether an admirable selection as Mary, while Malcolm Keen is an effectively sinister Sheringham. Ben Welden, Esmond Knight and John Turnbull are satisfactory in the major supporting roles. Albert de Courville's first essay into production has resulted in some ingenious and novel technical work, but the story telling is not too clear. However, there are a number of really gripping situations, and not a few surprising, while the comedy element is polished, and admirably balances the whole."
Picture Show wrote: "Good melodramatic story that has not heen too well treated filmically. Dennis Neilson-Terry gives a polished performance in the leading role, and is well supported, but the direction robs the film of much of its effectiveness." ==References==
