Critical reception

Brent Simon of

Screen Daily wrote "Harold Faltermeyer's funky, synth-laden score conjures up very specific memories of Beverly Hills Cop's theme song, which, along with self-consciously evocative music choices, give the movie a decidedly nostalgic, '80s-leaning feel."[4] Tony Horkins of GamesRadar+ called it as "kitsch".[5] Chris Bumbray of JoBlo.com wrote "The score is the most memorable thing about the movie, and they even managed to work in the theme song from Fletch, which was one of the few things about the film to put a smile on my face."[6] Ron Hogan of Den of Geek wrote "Even the soundtrack is 80s cop movie, due to the score work of Harold Faltermeyer".[7]
