Worked up in an amateurish way

A two-part offering that would have been better in one reel. As entertainment the first part, in which a situation is worked up in an amateurish way, is lost work. In the second reel there is enough suspense to make us forget the not very plausible train of circumstances on which it all is built and we watch the outcome with interest. It is not a picture that calls for strong acting. The photography is clear and effective. M.B. Havey is the author. Edgar Jones produced it. - The Moving Picture World, March 21, 1914
