Critical reception
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Intended presumably as a comedy thriller, Find the Lady lacks wit and is only intermittently exciting. It is difficult to decide from Beverly Brooks' performance whether the heroine is meant to be as empty-headed as she appears. Of the supporting cast, only Maurice Kaufman and Edwin Richfield manage to bring any conviction to their parts."[3]
In British Sound Films: The Studio Years 1928–1959 David Quinlan rated the film as "average", writing: "Neatly plotted comedy-thriller taher short on genuine humour."[4]
