Brian Tallerico for RogerEbert.com slated the movie, stating not only is "overlong" but it feels "twice as long" again.
Although featuring a female protagonist in the lead role, a review in Screen Rant stated the film "fails to subvert sexist tropes", with its gender politics being less progressive than movies from 30-40 years previously.
