CRITICS OF "Dog Day Afternoon"

Cinema Sight

Strong performances and forward-thinking situations make this political thriller an exceptionally vibrant experience.

April 11, 2011

Resource

Chicago Reader

One of Sidney Lumet's best jobs of directing and one of Al Pacino's best performances (as a bisexual bank robber) come together in a populist thriller with lots of New York juice

April 27, 2009

Resource

Antagony & Ecstasy

Presents a remarkable collection of human beings behaving under stress.

January 02, 2016

Resource

New York Times

It's beautifully acted by performers who appear to have grown up on the city's sidewalks in the heat and hopelessness of an endless midsummer.

May 09, 2005

ColeSmithey.com

As much as it is about a deeply troubled individual, "Dog Day Afternoon" is about a shift toward exploitation in the American media via live television.

May 30, 2011

Resource

Salt Lake City Weekly

[Dog Day Afternoon] speaks to a particular moment in an edgy early 1970s New York City -- a post-Stonewall city of people figuring out identities, and bubbling with anti-establishment anger and a nascent culture of exploitation media.

Video-Reviewmaster.com

Fine, but overrated Pacino vehicle directed by Lumet.

October 23, 2008

Time Out

The film's strength lies in its depiction of surfaces, lacking the visual or intellectual imagination to go beyond its shrewd social and psychological observations and its moments of absurdist humour.

January 26, 2006

Resource

Chicago Reader

Enjoyable and even exciting at the start, Dog Day Afternoon degenerates into frustration and tedium toward nightfall -- an experience no less painful for the audience than for the actors.

April 27, 2009

Resource

TIME Magazine

[Pacino] gives an electric performance, charged with a lunatic energy that expertly captures the weird blend of confidence and self-deprecation (if not hatred) that marks the paranoid syndrome.

August 24, 2008

Variety

Dog Day Afternoon is, in the whole as well as the parts, filmmaking at its best.
