Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times Oct 23, 2004
3/4
The Stone Killer is a superior example of its type -- tough cop against the mob -- and probably the best violent big-city police movie since Dirty Harry. It's not much more, nor does it mean to be. Go to Full Review
Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Oct 13, 2023
4/5
Bronson has always been an actor who can carry a movie with his formidable presence. That’s certainly the case here. Go to Full Review

A stone's throw from complete success. Go to Full Review

Tony Mastroianni Cleveland Press Nov 20, 2003
The plot of this movie is a confusing mixture of elements which probably results from trying to fashion a film with pieces of so many others. Go to Full Review

Albus L Aug 21, 2017 Not nearly as good as The Mechanic, which hade Bronson & the same director. A good 70's time capsule, but that's about it. Couldn't get serious about Papa Walton & his undersized Fedora hat, being a cop. This Blu-ray is a limited edtion of 3000 from Twilight Time. There are a lot better Bronson movies out there. See more
Theodore P Jul 3, 2017 Another entertaining Bronson/Winner team up. Not their best effort, you can see the progress, stepping towards the winning Death Wish formula, but you can see this is their best impression of Dirty Harry... See more
