Critics' reviews
- "The plot is muddy and quite beside the point. The almost meditative mood takes center stage."
- "While the film throws a solid pop punch, you could still swear you've seen it all before."
- "There's enough atmosphere, mayhem and just plain energy to make the film a viable midnight movie."
