Variety

Christian Sesma's derivative crime drama offers modest diversion for undemanding genre aficionados.

John DeFore

The Hollywood Reporter

Forces one to assume the writer/director sat down one morning to write his own Guy Ritchie-meets-Oceans caper, told himself, "hey, this is a breeze!" and got up before lunchtime having finished a script few other people would recognize as a movie at all.

Terry Staunton

Radio Times

Kilmer's one-dimensional presence is essentially an extended cameo, while the plot's myriad twists and turns are handled in a slipshod manner that confuses more than compels.

Rated: 2/5

Ready Steady Cut

A lightweight and forgettable film about double-crossing deals in the desert, from Christian Sesma.

Rated: 1.5/5

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Common Sense Media

Built from a grab-bag of pieces borrowed from other heist movies but assembled in a way that makes little sense, this B movie has dull characters and an unhappy use of throat cancer survivor Kilmer.

Rated: 1/5

Paydirt veers from a failed genre exercise into borderline cruel exploitation and the only really good thing to say about it is that few people outside of Kilmer's most devoted fans will ever bother to watch it.

Utter drivel, predictable plot, and a cast of traffic cones with cut out faces stapled on. And I'm being magnanimous because of the pandemic.

Paydirt tries to be another guy Ritchie knock off kind of film but it fails. The script is messy, the acting is bad, the movie screams B-movie all the way. Even certain shots seem out of focus. It’s not the worst thing you ever see but the movie could’ve been a lot better. And the dubbing for Val Kilmer is just terrible.
