Some critics praised the movie for its tight scripting and clever plot twists, with the South China Morning Post noting "the film continues the franchise's tradition of smart storytelling and strong performances, particularly from Louis Koo." However, others felt the film didn't quite reach the heights of its predecessors — Variety mentioned that "while the premise remains intriguing, the pacing at times suffers, leading to a less engaging experience." The movie was also appreciated for its production quality, cinematography, and its portrayal of surveillance technology's impact on personal and corporate lives.
