Variety
Rating: 6/10 --
...rather tame and superficial by today's standards: a gentle, sentimental comedy on the subject of interracial marriage.

Movie Metropolis
Hepburn's extraordinary commitment to Tracy still sears the screen.
Total Film
Rating: 3/4 --
Initially breezy without ever sacrificing any of its points, the picture eventually resorts to a series of static speeches. Luckily, the actors carry the day, particularly Sidney Poitier, Cecil Kellaway and, taking MVP honors, Spencer Tracy.

Common Sense Media
The movie insidiously charms us into ignoring its defects, and for this the credit must go to a superb cast.

4 stars out of 5 -- [O]verall a compassionate and often funny argument that all you need is love.
