Kitty Kelly Chicago Tribune 02/05/2021
Mr. Abeles did many funny things, and his performances were the only ones that elicited any chuckle. Between his humorous oases there were arid spots of desert dullness. Go to Full Review Sime Silverman Variety 02/05/2021
Plenty of vim and vigor to this feature picture. It pulsates with a palpitating motion after the first two reels of planting the foundation are finished. Go to Full Review Louis Reeves Harrison Moving Picture World 02/05/2021
With an amusing plot, plenty of adventure, admirable characterization so far as the central figures are concerned, and charm of treatment, Brewster's Millions seems to be a successful contribution to Lasky quality of production. Go to Full Review Motography Staff Motography 02/05/2021

Not often has so gifted, so eloquent a comedian, in the highest sense of that word, appeared on the screen. The artistry of Abeles' pantomimic performance as Monty Brewster will be remembered when the best of slapstick comedians has been forgotten.
