Bobby LePire of Film Threat rated the film a 9.5 out of 10 and wrote, "But if one doesn’t mind some odd moments, then Parker’s motion picture will scratch that neo-noir itch in the best possible way."[7]
Michael Talbot-Haynes, also of Film Threat, rated the film a 7 out of 10 and wrote, "Sure, Atrabilious has flaws and shortcomings, but the promise shown here is unmistakable."[8]
High on Films wrote it was "[a]n intriguing premise marred by lackluster execution".[9] Another review praised the "gritty" atmosphere of the film but admitted the plotline could be confusing.[10]
