Bringing back the style and glamour of '50s–era Technicolor musicals,
Gerri Pare (Catholic News Service) says, "The movie's modest charms lie not in the familiar love triangle but in the creative way director Robert Cary has stretched his low–budget film to include fantasy musical sequences and period detail from 50 years ago that make Billie's love of that era so convincing. While the ending is too pat and cuddly, it's hard not to enjoy the plucky spirit of this feel–good movie."
Movieguide's reviewer says it's "not a horrible film," but concludes that it is "easily forgettable, somewhat amateurish, and contains some content for mature audiences."
