Critic Reviews of "The Onion Field"
TIME MagazineSeptember 10, 2011The Onion Field is a serious and most uncompromising movie. It lacks, however, the sort of disciplined craft that might have made it a powerful and affecting one.
VarietyMarch 26, 2009James Woods as the near-psychotic Powell is chillingly effective, creating a flakiness in the character that exudes the danger of a live wire near a puddle.
Time OutJanuary 26, 2006It's the usual heavy Wambaugh brew: police procedure closely observed without a trace of romanticism, suggesting simply that life in the force is psychological hell.
New York TimesMay 09, 2005The film is generally crisp and at times exciting, but it's also full of incidents that are only sketchily explained, and minus the all-important narrative thread that might have provided a clear point of view.
TV GuideSeptember 10, 2011Good acting and careful direction by Becker make it worth seeing, but the violence and the language may be too graphic for some tastes.
Apollo GuideNovember 08, 2002Ranks among the best crime films of the late 1970s...and that puts the flick among some rather impressive company.
