- Critics' reviews
-
-
"A slick, stylish sequel to 'Harper' (1966), this private-eye film has Newman reprising the role of Ross MacDonald's cool gumshoe, Lew Harper."
-
"This second time around for Harper is a lackluster workout despite its colorful settings, occasional tension and a cast that includes Joanne Woodward"
-
"A tired piece of hackwork rescued only by the presence of Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. The whole enterprise moves in slow motion, with its programed music predicting each routine step. "
-
"What matters in this type of film is not so much the plot as the way in which an atmosphere is created. Unfortunately, Rosenberg directs flatly, hopping from one set piece to the next2
