Reception
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "The bright idea of using a children's cinema matinee (the setting in this case is the ABC at Walton-on-Thames) as background for the framing sequences of a children's film is here matched by some equally bright slapstick scenes involving wet paint, custard pies and hose-pipes, and by the novel idea of depicting the young villains as a send-up gangster and moll. Kay Skinner is as engaging as ever in the role of Bonnie, while Tutte Lemkow's elephant trainer and Patricia Hayes' Aunt Maud stand out above some generally enjoyable performances from the adult members of the cast. The locations are ingeniously chosen, with the Duke of Bedford making a personal appearance in a sequence at Woburn Abbey; and Cyril Stapleton's catchy theme music helps put the final polish on what, despite some rather sibilant dialogue recording, is none the less an excellent children's film from Michael Forlong, the director/producer of the popular Lionheart."
