Writing in Radio Times, critic Alan Jones described the film as an "unusual thriller" with Sheedy displaying "an unexpected steely side," and that although there is "little in the way of mystery ※ there's plenty of unnerving action." Critic Rick Kogan wrote in The Chicago Tribune that the film was "interestingly textured and graced by a bold performance" from Sheedy. And that it "will keep you interested, offers an interesting variation on its theme and "rarely dips into predictability."" A review in the Sun Sentinel, reported that although the film is "billed as a psychological thriller, ※ is really a color-by-number, "blood-and-guts crime story with a better-than-average gimmick.""
