Some viewers praised Tony Jaa's impressive martial arts skills and the film's exhilarating action sequences. For instance, several fans on IMDb noted, "Tony Jaa delivers his trademark high-octane combat that keeps the adrenaline pumping." However, others felt that the story lacked depth and originality, with one critic from Metacritic commenting, "While the action is commendable, the plot and character development leave much to be desired."
