Mae Tinee Chicago Tribune The piece is fast and because of clever acting, humorous in spots. But the average observer doesn't find wholesale inebriation an amusing sight -- and this film specializes in scenes depicting imbibers before, after, and while taking. Jan 4, 2021 Full Review Ella H. McCormick Detroit Free Press Its humor is not gentle nor its lines polite, but it is so badly funny and true to its theme that despite Its frequent roughness there is nothing to do but loin the laugh parade and enjoy Its wildness to the end. Jan 4, 2021 Full Review Wanda Hale New York Daily News It ias all a lot of fun if you like seeing the same old faces in the same old predicaments. Rated: 2.5/4 Jan 4, 2021 Full Review Eagle Staff Brooklyn Daily Eagle An amusing entertainment. May 12, 2021 Full Review Lloyd S. Thompson San Francisco Examiner Too much happens in Convention City to be recorded here. Let it merely be said that a perfectly chosen cast keeps things bubbling with mirth at all points. Jan 4, 2021 Full Review Harold V. Cohen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Archie Mayo, the director, establishes an almost unbelievably furious tempo at the outset and the cast never lets him down.
