Reception

The film received largely negative reviews. Matt Glasby of Total Film stated that 'Neil Jones threadbare Brit thriller short-changes all comers, particularly lead Martin Kemp, who plays a government hitman blackmailed into going rogue, and co-stars Nick Moran and Patrick Bergin, who add some undeserved class'.[3] Allie Gemmill stated that Age of Kill is 'ultimately another poorly-acted, poorly-constructed film that will only disappoint viewers who are hungry for a good action film'.[4]

The book of the film however was critically well-received.
