Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
The screenplay is so predictable in situation and so arch in its supposedly tough, blunt, wise talk that it turns into a joke told by someone with no sense of humor.
– Vincent Canby,

fresh:
Siegel knows what he wants and gets it.
– Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times,
23 Oct 2004
fresh:
Eastwood's performance as the flawed, headstrong superman has been terribly underrated, but he brings to the part of Coogan a sure knowledge of the man's obvious strengths and not so obvious failings.
– Don Druker,
Chicago Reader,

fresh:
Story is of the clash between sophisticated law enforcement and frontier-style simplistics, which is perhaps one of the major internal American problems.

fresh:
Even Siegel's somehow off-centre treatment of New York hippiedom is intriguingly wry.
