The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "This small-budget thriller is distinctly above the average of its type. The acting is in general of a high standard; there is a very good behind-the-scenes joke about British Banking and a skilfully-handled sentimental scene. The script is simple but brisk; the direction efficient."[4]
Allmovie wrote, "this British crime quickie reads rather better than it plays."[5]
TV Guide wrote that the film is "hampered by some less-than-impressive camerawork."[6]
Sky Movies noted "a crisp thriller, economic in length but correspondingly fast in pace and actionful."[7]
