This is the first of a series to be devoted to Octavius, amateur detective. The wonderful youth is something of a sissyboy, a burlesque character with just enough truth to "get over" and be funny. Yet the laughter is all at Octavius, never with him, and the humor that he furnishes is one of the picture's lesser assets. The best thing in this first picture is the good story, with excellent situations that are freshly amusing. It is ably acted throughout and kept alive with suspense. Barry O'Moore is the leading man; the producer is Charles M. Seay, and the author is Frederick Arnold Kummer. It pleased the audience markedly. - The Moving Picture World, January 31, 1914
