„Plainly a piece of cheap fiction done up in Technicolor and expensive sets. […] the whole plot—especially a court-room climax—is arbitrary, artificial and mane. Miss Tierney's petulant performance […] is strictly one-dimensional, in the manner of a dot on an I. […] Only the sets are intriguing, being elaborate and gadgety.“ – Rezension in The New York Times vom 26. November 1945, abgerufen am 14. Dezember 2012.

„Sumptuous Technicolor mounting and a highly exploitable story lend considerable importance to Leave Her to Heaven that it might not have had otherwise. Script based on Ben Ames Williams' bestseller has emotional power in the jealousy theme but it hasn't been as forcefully interpreted by the leads as it could have been in more histrionically capable hands.“ – Rezension in Variety von 1945 (ohne exakte Datumsangabe), abgerufen am 14.
