Critical reception
Los Angeles Times reviewer Michael Rechtshaffen, gave the film a largely negative review which concluded, "the low-budget production, with its soapy dialogue and cheesy video effects, should have splurged for someone to help choreograph the leads' stiffly executed dramatic exchanges." The Seattle Times reviewer Soren Andersen rated the film one star out of four, criticizing the "simplistic" plot and stiff acting of the lead characters.
