This number of the '"Grant, Police Reporter" series is as interesting as any preceding release. The reel is crammed with story. The intrepid Mr. Larkin this time furnishes a thrill when he gains access to a house by walking on a telephone wire while grasping with his hands a wire above. In the house he rescues the daughter of the man who invented a violet ray machine for the United States Government, and who has been blinded with his own rays by foreign plotters. The daughter is about to receive the same treatment when the reporter arrives on the scene. Credit is due Director Robert Ellis for several touches that lend realism to the film. In the cast with Mr. Larkin and Mr. Ellis are Ollie Kirkby, Harry Gordon and Cyril Courtney. – The Moving Picture World, February 3, 1917
