Reception
Cody Hamman of JoBlo.com gave the film a negative review, writing that it "doesn’t quite work as a whole."[4]
Evan Dossey of the Midwest Film Journal also gave the film a negative review and wrote, "The problem is that this film completely lacks a psychological thriller aspect, and Marie isn’t really written with the internal life to carry such a story."[5]
