| Chicago TribuneMichael WilmingtonFor the first time, the formula feels strained, due to excessive baby/dog humor and not enough Powell/Loy interaction. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeThird entry in the series is nearly up to the second. |
| Movie MetropolisJohn J. PuccioThe solution seems more convoluted than necessary, and as usual the murderer breaks down and confesses in the end. Still, it's good to see Powell and Loy in action. |
| The New York TimesFrank S. NugentThis third of the trademarked Thin Men takes its murders as jauntily as ever, confirms our impression that matrimony need not be too serious a business and provides as light an entertainment as any holiday-amusement seeker is likely to find. |
| Video-Reviewmaster.comSteve CrumOne of string of above average Wiliam Powell-Myrna Loy crime-comedies...and a joy. |
| Chicago ReaderDave KehrThis 1939 release is still watchable, though the spirit is now sitcom. |
| Filmcritic.comChristopher NullFans of the series will enjoy seeing their favorite couple continue to lightly spar and make those cross-cultural jabs, but the end result is decidedly tepid. |
| User ReviewBluepantherClassic detective series. I like "all" the thin man movies |
