Reception
The Monthly Film Bulletin said "a fair amount of work in Swedish outdoor settings and a repetitive but catchy theme tune provide this ingenious comedy thriller with two tiny virtues. Otherwise the heavy handled rough stuff is funnier than the light relief; both the characterisation and the acting leave much to be desired; and – a novel departure for a film made in Sweden – the pursuit of a spy ring leads through a nudist camp inhabited, it seems, but not a single nudist."[2]
