Mordaunt Hall New York Times Mr. Denny is equal to the awkward situations in which Skinner is placed and Miss La Plante is a jolly little wife. Mar 25, 2006 Full Review Michael Barrett PopMatters If you look good dancing, you can make the deals. Universal’s restoration of this William A. Seiter film sparkles. May 5, 2022 Full Review Iris Barry The Spectator [Denny's] films are definitely delightful and extremely funny, not farces like those of Lloyd and Keaton, but real, light comedy, from which the plaguey humour of dress suits, dance partners and domestic and business life in general is deftly extracted.
