Reception

The New York Times praised the film's dialogue as ironic, literal and even occasionally funny" and said the women were "lovely".[2]

Gene Siskel called it "repetitive and not erotic."[3]

The Los Angeles Times said "over the years veteran low budget producer Sam Katzman has racked up a reputation for spotting a trend and cashing in on it, but he's awfully late in getting into nudies" adding the film was "not only too late, it offers too little for its genre."[4]
