The Observer (UK)
Engagingly wry thriller starring Charles Bronson as a Texas adventurer hired by Jill Ireland to spring her innocent husband (Robert Duvall) from a Mexican jail. [08 Oct 2000, p.10] - 50
Chicago Sun-Times
Bronson is a first-rate action star with a catlike grace and a nice air of menace. But here, trying to land a helicopter after only a few lessons on how to fly it, or staging a phony rape scene to distract prison guards, Bronson is given a sort of incompetency he doesn't wear well. We believe him more easily when he's strong, silent and infallible. - 40
TV Guide Magazine
Unmotivated, often plodding, and singularly without humor, this film could have been terrific. - 30
Variety
Director Tom Gries and the entire cast perform as though they all had better things to do.
