Reception

Nick Perry of Boston Hassle called the film a "pertinent social commentary full of genuine hilarity and frank shock".

Ernesto Zelaya Miñano of ScreenAnarchy wrote that Rose "fully commits to his absurdist, black comedy tone" which "works wonders", and called the film a "refreshing change of pace from mainstream comedies and their seemingly mandatory gooey, feel-good moments."

J. R. Jones of the Chicago Reader wrote that under Rose's direction "any laughs inherent in the premise are smothered by the defensively smug tone".
