- Critics' reviews
-
-
"William Goldman, in his first solo script credit, plays knowing games with the Chandlerish conventions (...) Enjoyable performances throughout"
-
"The action is swift and the mystery fetching in this handsomely made color film. But eventually it seems a bit too obvious, imitative, old-fashioned and, worst of all, stale."
-
"A private-eye movie without sophistication and style is ignominious."
