Reception

Richard Christiansen of the Chicago Tribune awarded the film one star and wrote, "But the movie as a whole is so loosely organized and so quirkily edited that none of it makes much sense; and its ending, with a joke involving the late Mayor Richard J. Daley, is sadly outdated."^[2]

Roger Ebert awarded the film one and a half stars.^[3]
