Digital Spy'' said "'Outta Here', co-written and produced by Justin Timberlake, is very much the typical R&B-tinged pop debut - the sort of thing deployed by the likes of Mandy Moore, Stacie Orrico. "I feel so betrayed, what a waste of my heart," Denters wails as she launches into a chorus but unfortunately there are no real signs of passion or charisma here."
The BBC gave "Outta Here" 3 out of 5 stars, calling it 'fun' and 'good'. Music Focus Release said that ""Outta Here" isn't a song that immediately grabs you. In fact on the first listen we found ourselves a little disappointed and indifferent."
