Reception

Dutch film magazine Schokkend Nieuws highlighted the film's premise in their review as being "promising," but the film ends up being a "missed opportunity." The magazine criticizes it for failing to delve into the political undertones it initially suggests to address. As a result, the magazine writes, "it did not become a critical and politically relevant film." It condemns the film for abandoning the initial political turmoil themes to succumb to a predictable plot.[3]
