- Critics' reviews
-
-
"'Against All Odds' is so lively and enjoyable on its own terms that its genre problems, while real, are easily overlooked."
-
"It begins promisingly.... But the film has no center, succumbs to drift, and gets away from Hackford"
-
"Little remains of the original but its weakest element - its overelaborate intrigue - and Hackford seems only to scramble it further."
-
"Not even a bravura performance from Woods, some steamy love scenes between Bridges and Ward, and a thrilling daylight car chase down Sunset Boulevard can pull this confusing remake out of the doldrums."
-
"This is about as noir as Pete’s Dragon, best to accept its superficiality as a boon - Hackford, at least, gives it a slick exterior - and enjoy it is a vacuous thriller"
