Reception edit
Stephen Dalton of The Hollywood Reporter called the film an "overcooked western that shoots itself in the foot."[1]
Martin Tsai of the Los Angeles Times wrote that the film "suffers from a wayward narrative", and that "Any dramatic conflict that does arise has a budget telenovela feel."[2]
Josh Kupecki of The Austin Chronicle rated the film 1 star out of 5 wrote that while the film "looks pretty good", and the performances "aren’t half-bad", the film is "some neo-noir nonsense that makes those post-Tarantino movies from the mid-Nineties look like Chinatown."[3]
