Dennis Harvey of Variety called the film a "modest, involving drama that hits few surprising notes but feels astutely knowledgeable about its subject."[2]
Albert Williams of the Chicago Reader called the film "dreary" and "predictable", and wrote that Mitsui "is trying to convey the aimless banality of his characters’ lives, but instead he succumbs to it."[3]
