Alex Henderson of AllMusic wrote:[2]
So Hutch's solo debut isn't groundbreaking, but even so, the MC is clever and entertaining enough to hold your attention. Dark, twisted humor was always one of Hutch's strong points, and there's no shortage of it on Executive Decisions -- much like Martin Scorsese's Goodfellas or Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction, this CD is amusing and disturbing at the same time. And musically, Executive Decisions is easy to admire.
