Robert Beveridge of Popcorn for Breakfast: "All the SFCOM markers are here. There’s bad CGI, awful script, generic cute chicks (and one who’s supposed to be the “plain” intelligent one who's actually hotter than the rest of the bunch: in this movie, that's Kiratikorn Ratkulthorn, in her first but hopefully not last film), monsters that do nothing you'd think they would do, etc. [1]
AnimalAttack called the film average and gave it a score of 3 out of 6. [2]
In its opening weekend in Thailand the film came in second at the box office grossing $167,154. In its second weekend the film dropped 74.8% and grossed $42,150. The film went on to gross $302,950. [3]

In the United States, a film's box office gross in its second weekend of theatrical release is one of several factors used to predict overall box office performance. Most films experience a decline in box office gross in their second weekend, but a significant decline often indicates a subpar box office performance for the rest of a film's theatrical run. Some films are exceptions in that they perform better in their second weekend of release than on opening weekend.
The dump months are what the film community has, before the era of streaming television, called the two periods of the year when there have been lowered commercial and critical expectations for most new theatrical releases from American filmmakers and distributors. Domestic audiences during these periods are smaller than the rest of the year, so no tentpole movies are released. January and February are usually most commonly described this way, with August and September sometimes included. Releases during those times primarily include films that would have been released at other times of year had they performed better at test screenings, films with less prominent stars, genre films, movies that cannot be easily marketed and films intended for a teenage audience, which has fewer entertainment options outside the home.
