Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
Solider and nun on Pacific isle during WWII. More dutiful than fun.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)

Enjoyable, but not very deep, Huston opus.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
As with Huston's The African Queen, there is conflict mixed with romantic tension Here, though, the complicating factor is not fastidiousness, but vocation.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Superb performances by Deborah Kerr and Robert Mitchum help make this lightweight survival pic a small gem.

John Huston's Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison falls short of the strikingly similar odd couple entertainment that came just before it in The African Queen

Kerr makes diffidence exciting as her character brushes up against some troubling emotions. She is held back by a story that doesn't let her do much but in many ways, this film serves as a testament to her abilities...
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
This box office hit is so much the minimalist two-character piece that it's a wonder no enterprising Broadway producer has ever tried to turn it into a stage hit.
