Brandon Harris of Filmmaker magazine wrote: “An array of impressive performances… the film is reminiscent of John Dahl’s early 90s thrillers Red Rock West and The Last Seduction.”[9] Patrick Washington of The Dallas Weekly on Rushlights: “One of the best thrillers I’ve seen.”[10] Mike Smith of Mediamikes gave the thriller 4/5stars writing: “Packed with genuine surprises and emotion… Stutz’s direction is clear and sharp.”[11] Neil Genzlinger of The New York Times wrote: “When it comes to film plotting, too many twists results in an annoying tangle.
