- Gene Sisko (as transcribed) gave the film one star, called a tough beat; Roger Ebert gave two out of four, which one host likes, writing that despite Hill's cinematic scale the film is implausible and the characters lack depth and spontaneity.
- Ebert also wrote that whatever impression the ads give, this is not remotely intended as an action film but a set piece, a ballet of stylized male violence; one host agrees with the description but thinks holding it against the film is a weird criticism.
