Reception
Steven Oxman from 'Variety' magazine wrote: "Despite attractive trappings and some distinctly delightful cameos, Fox's 'How to Marry a Billionaire' ultimately comes off as a wooden effort Fox's take on the original 1953 pic replaces the three women out to marry into money with three men out to accomplish the sameand adds extra zeroes to the titular target. But while the argument presented in the picwhat's good for the goose should be good for the gander (if women can marry for money, why not men?)makes perfect sense, this story remains an idea that never quite works, resulting in a joyless, if intermittently amusing, made-for."
