Reception

Critical

Andrew Saroch of Far East Films rated the film a score of three out of five stars and calls it an "enjoyable comedy mixes the familiar ingredients of fast-paced comedy, spurts of action and thin plot, alongside a cast of welcome faces" but criticizes the film for its lack of order and some over-the-top performances.[1]
