Critical response
Lav Diaz, writing for the Manila Standard, gave the film a negative review. Though he found the action scenes and the animation of Joaquin's tattoos coming to life to be good, he criticized the film's dialogue, lighting, costume design, sound design and the supporting cast's performances. Diaz also questioned why Joaquin's escape from prison did not make the authorities look for him throughout the rest of the film, and further criticized the climactic action scene between Joaquin and the villain to be silly ("kenkoy").[2]
Television remake
In 2008, a television remake titled Joaquin Bordado was broadcast on GMA, with Robin Padilla as the titular character.[3]
