Only Gary Cooper and Claudette Colbert could have given it its peculiar sparkle, romance and deftly timed comedy.

Maclean's Magazine
Ernst Lubitsch seems to be resting on his cliches in this atypically inelegant 1938 comedy.

Chicago Reader
A sporadically funny, somewhat contrived comedy.

Rating: 1.5/4 --
Wilders and Brackett's screenplay has some laughs, and Lubitsch knows how to get the most out of the least, but this movie was a mistake to make in the first place.

TV Guide
Rating: C+ --
The text (also done as silent), co-scripted by Billy Wilder, seems ideal for the Lubitsch touch, and yet the tone is incongruous and overall the film is disappointing.

Rating: 2.5/5 --
Although it's not a bad comedy by our current depressed standards, it has the dickens of a time trying to pass off Gary Cooper as a multi-marrying millionaire.
