Musical hillbilly opus starring John Carradine, Martha O'Driscoll, and Eddie Dean is "out of the rut of the motheaten oatrunner formula and in the groove with an upbeat musical score, a zany laugh-getting script and a good cast... one of PRC's [Producers Releasing Corp.] best offerings to date. It's a hillbilly mule opera with a tongue-in-cheek treatment... A total of eight numbers, all highly listenable and several of sock quality.... Cast is topped by John Carradine who's taken off the leash in his role of a Hollywood director and given plenty of space in which to deliberately ham up the screen.... Story is some frothy nonsense concerning the attempt to find a hep mule for a motion picture role in a hillbilly operetta. Madcap angle is played up in the fact that the animal is matriculating as an experimental student in an agricultural college." (Variety, August 14, 1946)
