"An uneven mixture of insider satire on the gumshow film genre, gratuitous brutality, and sledgehammer whimsy."

Variety
Variety"Shot in gloriously steely colours by Vilmos Zsigmond with a continually moving camera, wondrously scripted by Leigh Brackett (who worked on The Big Sleep), and superbly acted all round, it's one of the finest movies of the '70s."

Time Out
Time Out"Attempts the impossible and pulls it off."

The New York Times
The New York Times"It tries to be all genre and no story, and it almost works."
—
Roger Ebert
Roger Ebert"As much a crisp comment on contemporary LA (and its full-on egotism) as a tale delineating Marlowe's crime-busting pursuits."
