"...the performances by the two leads are first-rate; it's just the movie that doesn't work".Roger Ebert

"Marlo Thomas has the same sort of ocular intensity as her father(Danny)".Gwenneth Britt

"I don't mean that is is an indulgent or self-aggrandizing peformance.Miss Thomas is the soul of tact.She generally keeps to herself in spite of the most shameless opportunities for emotionally display."Roger Greenspun

"Marlo Thomas has a nice whiskey crunch to her voice and plays the silly title role with all the sympathy she can muster,but alas,she's upstaged by the dancing raisins." Judith Crist

"She doesn't act,she reacts.She creates sympathy,but not interest or excitment.It's not Miss Thomas' fault,she reacts well and is often touching but the role and the story is basically undynamic".Variety
