	Author	Review
United States	Joe Leydon Variety	"A smartly constructed and sardonically funny indie with attitude that somehow manages the tricky feat of being exuberantly over the top even as it remains consistently on target."	POS
United States	Derek Smith Slant	"It’s enjoyably insane and creative in finding new outlets for its characters’ violent impulses (...) The film too often diffuses its tense energy by whipping up context (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"A nasty diversion (...) Providing just enough of a twist on the workplace-bloodbath concept to justify its addition to the micro-genre"	POS
United States	Jeannette Catsoulis The New York Times	"Neither innovative nor particularly clever, the movie understands its mission and benefits from Mr. Yeun’s unfailing air of basic decency."	NEU
United States	Meagan Navarro Bloody Disgusting	"It’s violent, it’s bloody, but most of all, it’s fun."	POS
United States	Craig D. Lindsey Village Voice	"Joe Lynch and screenwriter Matias Caruso pile on the cubicle-ensconced carnage, often making that top priority above having the bulky, obviously satirical plot make any gotdamn sense."	NEU
