== Reception ==
A review in the ''Lexikon des internationales Films'' stated: "A comedy attempt that seeks to parody the success of the film ''Stefanie'' (1959); however, the director's irony remains vague and fades into banality."<ref>{{Cite web |title=Marili |url=https://www.filmdienst.de/film/details/27423/marili |access-date=2025-03-16 |website=www.filmdienst.de |language=de}}</ref>

''Cinema'' considered that the film was a "completely banal ''My Fair Lady'' rip-off."<ref>{{Cite web |last= |first= |title=Marili (1959) - Film {{!}} cinema.de |url=https://www.cinema.de/film/marili,1318673.html |access-date=2025-03-16 |website=www.cinema.de |language=de}}</ref>
