The screenplay by Walter Hill... has very little to do with character and motivation and everything to do with the incidents and the mechanics of the spy trade.
Vincent Canby, New York Times
Rotten
The movie is irritating in its refusal to make things clear; if spy movies are going to work like clockwork, they have to be put together with some care.
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Fresh
Reasonably entertaining old-fashioned thriller.
