Reviews:
The old Monroe dynamism is lacking in the things she is given to do by the cliche-clogged script... ~The New York Times
In the acting department, Miss Monroe is not as impressive as in comedy-type roles. ~Hollywood Citizen News
Miss Monroe, basically a first-rate comedienne, doesn't have a single bright line. ~New York Daily Mirror
