Critical reception The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Formula thriller, which opens promisingly but becomes less exciting as it progresses; attempts at comedy, in the dialogue between Fleming and his partner, Beaumont, are rather heavy-handed."
Kine Weekly wrote: "A keen sense of humour artfully relieves tension and cloaks occasional inconsistencies. In a word the thumbnail thriller makes a favourable impresson."
In British Sound Films: The Studio Years 1928–1959 David Quinlan rated the film as "mediocre", writing: "Good premise but thriller becomes less convincing as it progresses."
