Jessica Kiang of Variety deemed the film to be "a fleet-footed if sharply pointed existential-crisis comedy, shot with unobstrusive, naturalistic dynamism by Hélène Louvart".
Marcelo Stiletano of La Nación gave the film a 'very good' rating assessing that on the surface, the film works like a charm as a college-set madcap comedy, but it also is a tragicomedy.
Bartolomé Armentano of Rolling Stone considered that, in addition of the showcase of the cast, the film features another great achievement, that of "the accurate representation of university life and academic endogamy".
