ABPLive review of the film reads: “'Bad Newz’ is all about pure entertainment. It’s a fun, time-pass movie that you'll thoroughly enjoy if you don’t overanalyse and just go with the flow. With a star-studded cast, the film could have been more exceptional with a stronger script, particularly in the second half.”
