Leave your thoughts about Striking Distance.
| Washington PostRichard HarringtonStriking Distance is a solid adventure with just enough edge and mystery. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasStriking Distance opens and closes with a pair of jolting high-speed chases, the first over Pittsburgh streets, the second over the rivers that encircle the city’s center. In between is a lively mystery thriller that hurtles past plot contrivances and unintended laughs to deliver the goods as a satisfying escapist diversion. Like a paperback purchased at an airport just before you board a plane, it serves well its time-killing purpose but isn’t designed to stand up under close scrutiny. |
| IGNR.L. SchaefferWillis and Parker are fine in their respective roles, but neither character is given much spark. Willis sulks for most of the picture, grimacing at his enemies and drinking his way through scenes. |
| The New York TimesVincent CanbyIf Striking Distance were a book, it could be called a good read. Instead, it's a painless watch. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid NusairStriking Distance's failure is, in the end, especially disappointing given the first act's effectiveness and potential... |
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseLike the box of generic corn flakes, Striking Distance isn't so terrible, but you'll forget it the second you're done with it. [Blu-ray] |
| Hartford CourantMalcolm JohnsonHerringston's return to his hometown is no triumph, striking out at every turn, and failing to go the distance. |
| Tampa Bay TimesSteve PersallHerrington stages his action efficiently enough - the opening car chase manages to put a couple of spins on a hackneyed cinema staple - but is let down by his own script which seems to have been hanging around in the water so long it's become bloated. |
| The Seattle TimesJohn HartlBruce Willis is at his most morose in this flat, dankly lit, grindingly inept thriller about a serial killer whose victims all turn out to have been acquaintances of Willis’ rumpled, alcoholic cop hero. As his by-the-book partner, Sarah Jessica Parker is the only one in the movie who doesn’t look sleep-deprived. |
| Chicago TribuneMichael WilmingtonThis movie is glum, murky, dour, takes place mostly in the dark, doesn't make much sense and has a surprise climax so ridiculous you may watch it with perverse, astonished respect - the kind you might grant the Joint Chiefs of Staff if they showed up for a press conference wearing lampshades on their heads and yodeling. [17 Sept 1993, p.F] |
