Metacritic
Lumet is exploring the clichés, not just using them. And he has a good feel for the big-city crowd that's quickly drawn to the action.

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
Pacino simmers in this daring and brilliantly constructed treatise on the many facets of a crime.

Adam Smith
Empire
Dog Day Afternoon is a melodrama, based on fact, about a disastrously illplanned Brooklyn bank robbery, and 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.
