Reception



Barry Hertz of 'The Globe and Mail' awarded the film one and a half stars out of four and wrote, "Perhaps director Gail Harvey is the true author of this misfortune, with its rushed scenes and staging that only highlights, rather than deflects, the film's made-for-TV budget."

Norman Wilner of 'Now' gave the film a positive review and wrote, "Adapted by Linwood Barclay from his own novel, its a Fargo-like swirl of misunderstandings, betrayals and reversals of fortune, with a streak of bitter humour underneath the mayhem."
