Frank Schenk of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that the film "never becomes as affecting or suspenseful as it should be."^[1]

Matthew Row of Film Threat gave the film a score of 3/10 and wrote that while the film "does try to strike at a deeper emotional core through its mishmash of tropes, the over-glossed methodology and cheap resonance make the experience ultimately (and thoroughly) underwhelming."^[4]
