This Is th' Life

Motography published a positive review of the film, "Charlotte Burton, in the leading feminine role, that of a country girl, is delightfully natural in her acting, while Ed Coxen take the male lead in equally charming manner. George Fields completely loses his personality in the role of a hard-headed old farmer, who considers all modern improvements a waste of time, and the character portrayal further proves this actor's versatility. A number of the "Flying A" favorites appear in the supporting roles, all doing good work in their respective parts."^[4]

The trade publication Electrical Merchandise and Selling Electricity said the film was a good advertisement for electricity, writing, "There is a real story in the pictures, in which electric pumping for irrigation, electric utensils for reducing drudgery, electric therapeutics for alleviating suffering and electric table-ware are successfully shown. A real plot is developed in which a full cast of characters, including villain and comedian, play their allotted parts. The climax being a wedding-breakfast for two at which the heroine offers the hero four electrically soft-boiled eggs. Verily, this is th' life."^[5]
