Reception
Noel Murray of the Los Angeles Times gave the film a negative review and wrote, "It has the shape of a movie, but none of the stuff to make it move."
Julian Roman of MovieWeb also gave the film a negative review and wrote, "The film doesn't craft a compelling narrative to support its cause. Shoddy camera work, murky lighting, and a grating score hinder what could have been impactful. A puzzling climax also makes little sense after a long build up."
Sergio Pereira of Comic Book Resources also gave the film a negative review and wrote, "Despite the cast's best efforts and the noir gloss on display, Confidential Informant surrenders to lackluster editing, flawed logic, and the clichés."
Accolades At the 44th Golden Raspberry Awards, the film was nominated for Worst Supporting Actor for Mel Gibson.
