These young men must now decide to carry on and compromise with this situation or become rebels and ultimately lose their jobs.

Critical response

Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film 1 star out of 5, writing "None of the performances really stand out. Akshay goes through his role without much of an effort. His stunts are well executed of course. Raveena looks least interested in the goings-on. Amrish Puri gives a good account of himself. Raj Babbar tends to go over the top. Mohan Joshi is as usual. On the whole, POLICE FORCE has nothing forceful about it. Dull.
