An apt example of progressive cinema that breaks the shackles of stereotype, the film has everything to woo the cinegoer an impressive cast, grandiose look, an excellent second half, well executed stunts, popular music and eroticism in plenty. Prem Panicker of Rediff criticized the film saying A more taut script, a little less of indulgence in directing, a tad more ruthlessness in editing, and this film could have pulled off a badly needed box office heist. A reviewer at Sify awarded the film three and a half stars out of five and wrote, A film far ahead of its time in terms of execution, Kaante is a visual delight.

Derek Elley of Variety praised the direction and performances of the lead cast saying, From the protags initial meeting, heavy on closeups, Gupta directs the film primarily as a character piece, with Bachchan, Dutt and semi comic relief Manjrekar driving the drama with richly characterized roles. Shetty, a tightly wound actor at the best of times, strikes few sparks as the nightclub bouncer, and his scenes with Arora as the chanteuse are flat. Dave Kehr of The New York Times reviewed the film writing, A delirious Bollywood reimagining of Reservoir Dogs, complete with musical numbers, Sanjay Guptas Kaante shifts as fluidly between cinematic idioms as it does between Hindi and English. Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times said, there is a steadfast earnestness in director Sanjay Guptas deluded attempt to equal or even better Hollywood on its own ground that is rather touching but not to the degree that it sustains the films many tedious stretches. Quentin Tarantino cited Kaante as his favourite among the many films that were heavily inspired by his work. He praised the films character building for going beyond what he was able to do with Reservoir Dogs. Tarantino stated Here I am, watching a film that Ive directed and then it goes into each characters background. And Im like, Whoa. For, I always write backgrounds and stuff and it always gets chopped off during the edit. And so I was amazed on seeing this. I felt, this isnt Reservoir Dogs. Cal. HR Publications.
