Reception

David Rooney of Variety gave the film a negative review and wrote that it "provides few surprises but should prove serviceable enough as video fare".[1]

Glenn Kenny of Entertainment Weekly graded the film a C− and wrote that director Peterson "pads The Hard Truth with pointless action scenes and sexual interludes that stretch this should-have-been-80-minutes trifle to 100".[2]
