Manuel J. Lombardo of Diario de Sevilla rated the film 2 out of 5 stars, considering that the film—a "flawed" attempt to either open a debate or reflect on euthanasia—ends up looking too much at its own navel and "those of creatures that, with the exception of the one played by Ramón Barea, look like laboratory robots in a sad, old-fashioned existentialist theatre performance". Mikel G. Gurpegui of El Correo rated the film 1 out of 5 stars, underscoring how "the atmosphere created is not enough, some sequences border on the ridiculous and morbidity wins the battle against depth", with the more the protagonists talk, the more feigned it all sounds. David Pardillos of Cinemanía rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, considering that even if the mise-en-scene could be too rough, the attempt to confront ourselves with such an important issue is laudable.
