The film has a 22% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on nine reviews. Damon Wise of Deadline Hollywood gave the film a positive review and wrote, “Just lately, with the exception of Dan Gilroy’s Nightcrawler (2014), there hasn’t been too much evidence of a renaissance, but Roxine Hellberg’s satisfying feature debut taps back into the same dark wells of oral ambivalence corruption and power, casting the excellent Bel Powley as a journalism student who will do whatever it takes to make it in the cut-throat world of TV news broadcasting.”

Christian Zilko of IndieWire graded the film a C- and wrote, “With so many new journalism stories begging to be told, there’s simply no reason to retread old ones this poorly.”

Lex Briscuso of TheWrap gave the film a negative review and wrote, “Cold Copy is a tense journalism drama that ultimately can’t be saved by a group of strong leads who are running lengths with the material they’ve been given.”
