“Three Days of the Condor is a well-made thriller, tense and involving, and the scary thing, in these months after Watergate, is that it’s all too believable.” – Roger Ebert

“Three Days of the Condor is a good-looking, entertaining suspense film… At its best moments, Three Days of the Condor creates without effort or editorializing that sense of isolation – that far remove from reality – within which super-government agencies can operate with such heedless immunity.” – Vincent Canby, The New York Times
