Raquel Hernández Luján of HobbyConsolas gave the film 58 out of 100 films (overall assessment: "so-so"), considering that despite the good casting, the very good shooting and resourceful production, the film fails because of the writing. She highlighted the Spanglish-speaking police agents from Gibraltar to be the best thing about the film. She however deemed García-Jonsson's and Rovira's unfunny characters to be a drag, whereas supporting actors José Manuel Poga and Mona Martínez featured too little screentime. Reviewing for Cinemanía, Rubén Romero Santos scored 2 out of 5 stars, considering that despite a promising initial approach (successfully portraying the losers who cannot see the end of the economic crisis) the film is derailed by the inclusion of a romantic comedy, an episodic story and even an adventure-mystery story as subplots. Juan Pando of Fotogramas rated the film with 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting Furriel's "touching" caricature of a deceitful Porteño as the best thing about the film. See also
