Critics noted that while the game-fixing narrative is familiar, the film serves as a portrait of a complex woman navigating various roles—from a "whore with a heart of gold" to a "manipulative schemer". Despite its testosterone-driven environment of sports and goons, the narrative is ultimately steered by its female characters.
