}}

In a mixed review, AllMusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine said the track listing ignored the band's first two albums, Curb and The State, and that its inclusion of only two songs from the band's then-most recent studio album, Here and Now, "accurately reflects [that album's] also-ran status". He said that the greatest hits compilation would not change the minds of "the band's haters – who are legion" but that "there's not a more listenable Nickelback album out there".

In a negative review, Tony Clayton-Lea writing for The Irish Times lamented how "even the least discerning fan will listen to most of what's here and give it short shrift", nominating How You Remind Me and Rockstar as the best tracks on the package amidst the lifetime supply of "turgid cheese" present on the compilation.
