Reception

Deep Gold received a majority of negative reviews. Critic Brian Orndorf gave it "C" grade and wrote: "Not a film of intelligence or logic, but something candied to offer a few moderate thrills for audiences who prefer their action thick-fingered and cheesy, sold by a good-looking cast with little to no acting ability."
