Reception

Reviewers were split on the film, but generally not very positive. In a review for Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang, Jon Selås gave the movie a "die throw" of one and called it a "speculative, purposeless and ice-cold miss".[2] Eirik W. Alver of Dagbladet was slightly more satisfied with the film, giving it three points. Though he was not bored by the movie, he found the characters and the environment caricatured.[1]
