Kismet Ratings & Reviews
New York Times
Mordaunt Hall
The dialogue is competently handled, so that, while the spectacular episodes are eye-filling, the story always holds one's attention. There are huge settings of the palace and the dungeons, the size of which enhances the value of the action.
Brooklyn Daily Eagle
Martin Dickstein
Mr. Skinner is altogether superb, as everyone must have expected he would be. But the handicap of an absurdly lavish, moviesque production proves a little too much for him.
Harrison's Reports
P.S. Harrison
There is no denial as to its artistic worth; it has been produced most artistically, and Mr. Skinner does as good acting in it as he did on the stage.
Variety
Sid Silverman
A splendid effort.
TIME Magazine
TIME Staff
The only remaining element that might give interest to Kismet is the able performance of 72-year-old Otis Skinner in the role he first acted 19 years ago. The rest of the players are indifferent and the play itself is pretty well outdated.
The Film Daily
Film Daily Staff
Skinner gives a robust, effectively calculated and at times engrossing performance.
Photoplay
Shadow Stage
[Otis Skinner] is, as ever, perfect as the charming rogue.
