Critic Reviews for The Honey Pot
All Critics (7) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (4) | Rotten (3)
Mankiewicz develops his story with loving care, explaining each turn and twist to make everything perfectly clear.
Harrison has reached that point in his self-creation where he can turn even a blowsy under-endowed movie like The Honey Pot to his own greater honor and glory.
Rex Harrison and Maggie Smith take over the playing leaps to Wimbledon finalist standard.
"The Honey Pot" is a bright, Technicolor extravaganza that combines good acting, a clever, complex plot, solid direction and outstanding production.
This is really a stage production that doesn't work that well as a movie.
It starts as a comedy, turns into a murder mystery and at times sounds like a morality play. But the dialog is bright and brittle in The Honey Pot, one of the most sophisticated comedies to hit the screen.
Audience Reviews for The Honey Pot
A very, very youthful Maggie Smith in a supporting actress role....as she gets swept into a "scripted murder mystery" of sorts....
Super Reviewer
A bit diffuse but played for fun by the entire cast and that helps alot. A little long but worth the time.
