Critical receptionThe Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "This crime melodrama is a routine British second feature competently made and efficiently acted. Although it has few distinctive features it fulfils its purpose in a workmanlike way."[5] TV Guide called it a "so-so crime story. Despite some fast pacing in the direction, the script is too simplistic for the fare."[6] References
