"Charged with vitality, and inventiveness."

—

Variety

"The mop-tops are likeably relaxed, with Lennon offering a few welcome moments of his dry, acerbic wit."

—

Time Out

"It's a fine conglomeration of madcap clowning in the old Marx Brothers' style, and it is done with such a dazzling use of camera that it tickles the intellect and electrifies the nerves."

The New York Times

"One of the great life-affirming landmarks of the movies."

—

Roger Ebert

"The film is mad, mad and crazy, shrewdly designed for the teenage and calculated also to attract the curious and the oldsters who enjoy this sort of thing."
