Reception
Andy Webb from The Movie Scene gave the film three out of five stars and wrote: "What this all boils down to is that "Sacrifice" is really a bad movie; it has weak acting, poor action and irrelevant subplots. Yet all the wrong stuff ends up being as entertaining as the right stuff which makes "Sacrifice" surprisingly enjoyable." Richard Scheib from Moria.co gave it two stars, stating: "Sacrifice starts well. Michael Madsen’s central character is unusually conceived as a hero goes and the film is tightly plotted, consistently keeping one’s interest. Alas, Sacrifice fails to sustain such interest for its full length. Indeed, despite the unusualness of the central character and an interesting plot set-up, by about halfway point all of this has dissipated and Sacrifice has become merely a routine policier." Jack Sommersby from eFilmCritic gave the movie two stars and wrote: "The film isn't terrible, just terribly dull, with a who-cares hero registering near zero on both the dramatic and charismatic scale. I'd be happy to predict that Madsen probably has a good film in him somewhere down the line, but after seeing his 2009 slate of no less than twenty-eight(!) projects, it's safe to concretely conclude that here's an ultra-slumming actor preferring quantity over quality. A The Wrestler couldn't come along soon enough."
