Reception
[edit]Bosley Crowther gave a negative review in The New York Times: "When we take Mr. Brent as a Don Juan, the picture has got to be funnier than the main premise, for Mr. Brent, as is generally known, is somewhat remote from the type. And that funny, we regret to say, 'Honeymoon for Three' is not."[3]
