Writing for 'The Hollywood Reporter', Jordan Mintzer commented "'Girls with Balls' scores some points for its Z-movie conceits but could have benefited from stronger writing and direction".
According to Kimber Myers of the 'Los Angeles Times', "This is a deranged nightmare of wildness, as full of laughs as it is arterial sprays".
