Guy Lodge of Variety wrote that "it’s largely thanks to Postelnicu’s tricky performance — equal parts pathetic and sympathetic, with a genuine, soulful sadness beneath the amusing tics of his wheezing vocal delivery and gurning body language — that Men of Deeds pulls off its odd, queasily tragicomic tonal shuffle as well as it does, building on the already unflattering boys-in-blue portrait painted by Two Lottery Tickets." Neil Young of Screen Daily called the film's climax "effectively jarring". At the 17th edition of The Gopo Awards, Romania’s most glamorous cinema celebration, the film took home six awards, including Best Film, Best Director and Best Performance by an actor for Iulian Postelnicu’s portrayal of a depressed village policeman. Men of Deeds was also recognized for Best Screenplay (Radu Romaniuc & Oana Tudor), Best Editing (Eugen Kelemen) and Best Actor in a Supporting Role (Vasile Muraru). References
