On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 67% based on 9 reviews. [2]
James Perkins of Starburst rated the film 7 stars out of 10 and wrote that it is "more proof that Tom Paton is a true rising Director in British Independent cinema and must be championed for taking inspiration and adding his own flavour." [3]
Anton Bitel of SciFiNow called the film a "loving homage to the kind of anything-goes paranoid sci-fi actioners which were once the specialty of Carpenter and Cronenberg." [4]
Kevin Scott of PopHorror wrote: "The fluidity of funneling the character development, the mythos, and the action sequences into the plot make it an automatic recommend." [5]
Bobby LePire of Film Threat gave the film a score of 4.5/10 and wrote: "Paton is a fantastic visual stylish with a flair for action, but despite the efforts of a talented cast, the characters have little depth and spend so much expositing about this world that nothing happens for a while." [6]
