In Movie - Film - Review, Christopher Tookey wrote that though the actresses were "competent in roles that may have some reference to their own careers", the film "is visually unimaginative, never escapes its stage origins, and is almost totally lacking in revelation or surprising incident". Noting that there were "occasional, refreshing moments of intergenerational bitchiness", they did not "justify comparisons to All About Eve", and were "insufficiently different to deserve critical parallels with Rashomon".
In Movie - Film - Review, Christopher Tookey stated that the actresses delivered competent performances in scenes that might have been inspired by their own careers. However, he found the film to be visually unimpressive, lacking originality, and failing to deliver any groundbreaking moments.
