Reception

Robert Pardi from TV Guide gave the film two out of four stars and wrote: "Why doesn't someone cast B-movie icon Bobbie Phillips in a top-of-the-line movie? She's this Die Hard rip-off's most attractive selling point, and a fine advertisement for genetic reconfiguring". Jim McLennan from "Girls with Guns" compared it unfavorably to Die Hard and wrote: "Overall, this is a poor follow-up. You shouldn’t try to remake classics, unless you can bring something new to the party, and while Phillips is certainly no worse an actor than Bruce Willis, it’s not enough to stop this seeming a lame copy".
