Critics have pointed to some strengths in the film, but many have also highlighted significant shortcomings. According to Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a low audience score, indicating a disconnect between critics and viewers. A review from 'Variety' mentioned, "Luis Adams delivers a fierce performance as Rosa, embodying the tenacity and vulnerability of a devoted journalist. However, the film struggles with pacing issues that detract from its overall impact." Similarly, 'The New York Times' commented that while the cinematography captures the gritty essence of the protagonist's world, "the plot often feels convoluted and lacks the necessary tension to keep audiences engaged." The film's attempts to tackle heavy themes of truth and integrity in journalism did resonate with some viewers, yet the muddled narrative left many feeling frustrated.

One viewer stated, "The premise is intriguing, but it ultimately misses the mark due to underdeveloped characters and a meandering storyline."
