Alison Willmore of The A.V. Club called the film an "amusingly awful thriller" and Drew Taylor of IndieWire called it "a bad movie with incredibly clumsy narrative mechanics."

Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "The action sequences are strictly pro forma and -- despite the sleek killer’s resemblance to the similarly lethal heroine of La Femme Nikita -- this dull effort lacks the excitement generated by any of its incarnations."

Lisa Schwarzbaum of Entertainment Weekly gave the film a C.
