Ifeoma Okeke of Business Day Nigeria had this to say as the movie release was approaching. As Nigerian movies make international recognition, only very few movies have a mix of humor, capture every day to day activity and yet do not losing grip on moral lessons. One such few films are the Three Thieves, which will be out in cinemas on the 4th of October, 2019.[https://businessday.ng/life-arts/article/three-thieves-projecting-nigerian-youthscomedy-and-lifestyle/ Three Thieves: Projecting Nigerian youths,comedy, and lifestyle]


Osa Amadi from Vanguard It is a creative work of comedy with the intent to keep the ribs of the audience cracking with laughter from beginning to end, and it succeeded in that objective and even more.
