Critical reception
Kine Weekly wrote: "Farcical comedy, a merry marital melange draped with bright gags, and keenly exploited by a first-rate cast of English radio, stage and screen favourites. The complexities of the evergreen plot radiate good fun, and each and every situation registers with riotous accuracy in a happy-go-lucky atmosphere, gaily spiced with sex piquancy." The Daily Film Renter wrote: "Lively farce comedy detailing hilarious honeymoon misadventures of genially asinine hero, whose romance is halted by intervention of irate police constable, fiery Frenchman, and other obstacles. Put over with quota of 'wrong bedroom' incident, downright slapstick, and irresponsible clowning, the subject is brightly staged and nicely paced, with Hulbert very much at home in characteristic role. Really good entertainment of popular calibre." TV Guide gave the film three out of five stars, appreciating there were "Some good moments in an extremely lively comedy." ==References==
