Reception

[edit]

A review at TV guide stated "This hybrid maniac crimestopper and hoodlum-priest saga is intravenously fed by an infusion of lurid sex scenes."[5] A review for the German website Action Freunde found that "There's also not much going when it comes to action, which is a shame, because it is actually one of Morneau's strengths. But a few tame car chases hardly get the pulse going, while the murder scenes are neither particularly hard nor generate much emotion in the viewer, as the potential victims are far too indifferent. At the end there is a somewhat useful showdown in the burning artist's studio before we quickly move on to the end credits."[6]
