Reviewers generally describe the film as a "slickly made but overlong" exercise in action cinema. While it has been praised for its technical ambition—particularly for a South African production—it is frequently criticised for its cumbersome runtime of 124 minutes and an overly complex plot.

: The film shines during its practical, "heart-in-mouth" action sequences, such as an extended hotel-room escape and fights in tight spaces like elevators and police vans.

: Use of Cape Town, South Africa as a backdrop and the inclusion of Afrikaans dialogue provides a "bracing novelty" that distinguishes it from standard Hollywood fare. Common Criticisms

: Jarrid Geduld is widely praised for his "grungy physicality" and emotional intensity. Notably, he performed many of his own spectacular stunts.
