Reception

Manuel Piñón of Cinemanía rated the "surprising" noir film 4 out of 5 stars, considering that it is "written with astounding smarts and accuracy".{{Cite web|url=https://www.20minutos.es/cinemania/criticas/todos-tenemos-un-plan-18907/|website=Cinemanía|via=20minutos.es|date=7 September 2012|title=Todos tenemos un plan|first=Manuel|last=Piñón}}

Rob Nelson of Variety considered that the "tepid" Spanish-language drama is undermined by its "slow pacing, thinly drawn characters, a limp climax and humorless tone".{{Cite web|website=Variety|first=Rob|last=Nelson|title=Everybody Has a Plan|date=7 October 2012|url=https://variety.com/2012/film/markets-festivals/everybody-has-a-plan-1117948490/}}
