An inventor starts a family with his childhood sweetheart, but after he becomes successful, he becomes restless and takes up with another woman. However, the woman's true nature is revealed, he realizes his mistake.

Mae Tinee

Chicago Tribune

The picture is well photographed. The acting is all pretty fair. Miss Weber's intentions are of the best. Her trouble lies in trying to do so much that she never quite accomplishes what she sets out to perform.

Mabel McElliott

New York Daily News

[Lois Weber's] picture is immensely interesting, garnished by the "little feminine touches" which the more or less superior sex is inclined to pooh-pooh but which are telling and important just the same. I enjoyed every minute of it.

It is well staged and well acted.

Lillian R. Gale

Motion Picture News

In this particular instance What Do Men Want, main title of a splendid motion picture, is really what women want to see on the screen. At least, the fair sex will enjoy every foot of it.

Miss Weber has put the picture on with her usual veracity. She never has any "big moments" in her pictures, and her people act just as they do in real life.
