Critical reception

Brian Orndorf of Blu-ray.com called the film "a jarring viewing experience", and wrote that it "has no substance or dramatics, just a random assortment of poses from actors who don't have martial arts training".[4] He concluded: "It should be fun, but it's a little too dark for comfort, with sex scenes more about domination than pleasure [...] It's all a big goof, and one that could use 100% less rape to be taken seriously as something light."[4]
