Reception

Javier Ocaña of El País considered that the film ostensibly improves during its second third with a "phenomenal" Novas after a questionable first third with bad acting work and stiffness in the collective scenes, otherwise finding the film to be reminiscing of 1990s psychological thrillers such as Cape Fear and Sleeping with the Enemy.[9]
