The film has a 33% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. [2]
Dennis Harvey of Variety gave the film a positive review and wrote, "Resourceful, Los Angeles-shot low-budgeter is solidly assembled, with Xander Lott’s unobtrusive yet unsettling score a plus." [3]
Ben Kenigsberg of The New York Times wrote, "Yet even the failure to find a persuasive closing note doesn’t detract from Mr. Oyelowo’s riveting performance." [4]
Martin Tsai of the Los Angeles Times gave the film a negative review and wrote, "Director Simon Brand devotes so much running time to fear-mongering and grotesque stereotypes that a last-ditch effort at moral ambiguity and a critique on muckraking barely register." [5]
