Reception

A contemporary Variety review noted: "if you were watching this film without any regard for sense or substance, you'd have a reasonably good time" with its "very level artsy montage" but "a flat or inane dialog". Vincent Canby wrote: "It can't make up its mind whether it's a peep show, a mystery or a suspense melodrama, and so more or less compromises by immediately failing at everything."
