👍👍 8.5/10
Newsweek
Paul D. Zimmerman
The movie just vanishes, loose ends and all, in the pit of its own black vision.
Village Voice
Andrew Sarris
Night Moves bids fair to become one of the most underrated movies of the year.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Judith Crist
It is a stark and perceptive study of the private eye as a man able to function so long as he is uninvolved.
New York Magazine/Vulture
John Simon
A television murder mystery with grandiloquent existential pretensions, from a disastrous script, but as far as acting goes, nicely directed by Arthur Penn.
TIME Magazine
Richard Schickel
Night Moves becomes more entertaining and more interesting than it basically has any right to be.
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Farnum Gray
Hackman's performance is one of his best.
Boston Globe
Kevin Kelly
"Night Moves" is a taut, thoughtful, artfully composed thriller with a difference.
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
"Night Moves" will win no praise from persons expecting a mystery. It's a mood piece, and a bleak one at that.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Perry Stewart
It's well directed, well photographed and crisply edited.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
"Night Moves" is a stunning, stylish detective mystery.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Will Jones
What makes it all work, besides a finely tuned script, is an impressive collection of finely tuned performances.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Desmond Ryan
It sprawls uneasily across the screen -- a film of individual virtues and fine details that collapses under the weight of its aspirations.
New York Daily News
Ann Guarino
The script by Alan Sharp has little suspense and gets too clever delving into psychological motives.
New York Daily News
Rex Reed
The complex inter-weaving of action and character development results in a rich fabric of humanity seldom explored in the action-thriller genre.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Pollack
Sharp has provided some excellent throwaway lines. The story builds slowly, and without a great deal of suspense, but there is sufficient action.
Los Angeles Times
Doug List
Few actors can communicate that kind of inner struggle better than Hackman.
USA Today
Mike Clark
Screenwriter Alan Sharp's dialogue, as edgy as his name, combines with Penn's incisive direction to create memorable characters.
AV Club
Nathan Rabin
Filled with shadows both literal and figurative, Night Moves elegantly combines the hard-edged pessimism, crackling banter, and all-consuming darkness of classic noir with the paranoia and bitterness that characterizes so much '70s cinema.
