Reception[edit]

Mirito Torreiro of Fotogramas rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting the nearly entire cast as the best thing about the film, while citing the feel of déjà vu left by the denouement as a negative point.[7]

Jordi Costa of El País wrote that the "actors shine, but as jet engines crammed into a second-hand utility vehicle and condemned to run through clichés".[8]
