Reviews

Lisa Nesselson praised Gary Oldman's portrayal in Variety magazine on September 24, 2003. The film deals with many topics and is an "honorable failure".

The lexicon of international films wrote that the “melodramatic” film had “weaknesses”, but that it was “solidly” entertaining and advocated for “social outsiders”. The representations were praised as "convincing".
