 Reception 
Derek Elley of Variety called it "unevenly acted and scripted".  Jamie Russell of the BBC rated it 3/5 stars and called it "commendably ambitious, but only occasionally successful".  Alan Morrison of Empire rated it 3/5 stars and wrote that the film becomes more pretentious as time goes on.  Total Film rated it 2/5 stars and called it "intense, reflective yarn" that wallows in sadism.  Time Out London called it bleak, stylistically bold, and occasionally pretentious.  David Johnson of DVD Verdict called it "a refreshingly original take on the hitman-with-a-conscience gig."  Glenn Erickson of DVD Talk called it "an overachieving straight-to-video feature" that treats its subject matter as more important than it is.
