Critical reception

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "On the debit side are the near absence of plot, the heavy obviousness or leering suggestiveness of the humour, the over-acting of the older players in their trite roles, the embarrassing inability of many of the singers to dance more than a few easy steps, and the prolonged and irrelevant Wild West dream sequence. It is surprising, then, that this musical is quite attractive and entertaining. As co-author of the screenplay, James Hill may share in the responsibility for the film's failings, but as director he keeps it moving at a good pace, drops in some bright little visual jokes, sets up musical numbers unconventionally – for example during the camp toddlers' mass bath night – and quietly laughs at the real-life camp used as a background, notably during an amateur beauty contest. Nicolas Roeg's photography in Technicolor is a great strength, especially in the snappily edited final number. John Leyton has an engagingly melancholy personality, and in the other leading role Mike Sarne, as the languid Tim, is very funny. One is never sure, though, in the songs whether it is the film sending up the upper class Tim, or whether it is the pop lyrics that are being sent up by the cool Mr Sarne."
