The film opened in theatres on 8 May 2014. The film was a box office failure.
Laetitia Wong of Today rated the film 4 stars out of 5 and wrote: "Thanks to a riveting storyline and a subject we can all identify with, Filial Party is heart-warming and an adorably comedic outing for Boris Boo." Li Yiyun of the Lianhe Zaobao gave the film 3.5 stars out of 5 for entertainment and 2 stars out of 5 for artistry. Hong Menyan, also of the Lianhe Zaobao, wrote a positive review of the film.
Jocelyn Lee of The New Paper called the film a "refreshing take on filial piety bound to tug at your heartstrings." Yip Wai Yee of The Straits Times rated the film 2 stars out of 5 and wrote: "When even an A-list actor such as Christopher Lee has to wander around naked to milk laughs, you know the movie itself does not have a stitch of credibility."
