This picture, written by Bannister Merwin, and produced by Charles Brabin, makes a good offering because, though its story is unconvincing, it has been well handled. While John Bolt sleeps, his conscience takes him out into his past to show him unworthy things that he has done. Conscience comes, armed with gleaming sword and Roman buckler, lordly and imperious, as conscience really is. Most of the double exposure scenes in which he appears and disappears are perfect and wonderfully impressive, and this impression is steadily maintained by the acting of Marc MacDermott, as Bolt, an old paralytic, and of Charles Ogle, the Visitant. The author has made Bolt, after seeing his injustices, correct them and, after correcting them, be cured of his disability which, on the showing, seems apoplectic and incurable. He hasn't made us believe in it. - The Moving Picture World, June 21, 1913
