Sin of Harold Diddlebock Reviews
The film is studded with gems, many of them contributed verbally by the Sturges stock company.
Abetted by some excellent dialog from Sturges' pen, Lloyd handles his role in his usual funny fashion.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews
... it's saved by a few inspired flashes of comedy sprinkled throughout.

| Original Score: B-
Kansas City Kansan
Flat later Harold Lloyd who is really out on a ledge here
| Original Score: 3/5
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Funny, fascinating, flawed attempt by Preston Sturges to revive Lloyd's career.
| Original Score: 4/5
Sturges's restored original version is a major rediscovery: a loving and gentle essay on Lloyd's screen character, laced with poignant observations about middle age.
