The film magazine Cinema compares Im Winter, so nicely with the Austrian crime novels about the character Erwin Brenner : “The comedy resembles the laconic melancholy of the Brenner crime thrillers with Josef Hader, and in the end not everyone who is believed to be dead is too . "

Also KINO.de was praising the film as ambitious German "low-budget thriller with well-drawn types and moments of subtle humor," the "for little money in intentional Tristesse atmospherically dense and humorous done" but criticized: "Committed performer of second to third rows strive honestly to breathe life into a story that is sometimes somewhat adventurous. Not every figure and twist is able to convince ”. Kino.de weakens this criticism at the same time, "because the good will is recognizable and gives hope for progress in the German genre film industry."
