This idea used in this three-part offering which pictures an old man as changing, under the influence of the elixir of youth, from infirm age to youth and so down through babyhood to prehistoric man and to an ape, was the main interest of a recent Edison farce. Yet here Sidney Bracy, who takes the role of the miser, has been able to put something of horror and terror into the changing back which is fresh, very well done and effective. It would have been a startling picture in one reel. Here it drags a bit; yet will capture attention none the less. The camera work is skillful and makes the transitions seem wonderfully convincing. - The Moving Picture World, April 4, 1914
