Rating: 5/10 --
It's certainly not the grotesque failure of art and morality described in 1980... But a failure nonetheless.

What we're left with is a movie without the courage to declare itself.

William Friedkin's Cruising is a work of art.

Boston Globe
Rating: 1.5/4 --
An absolute bust as a murder-mystery, as a character study, and as an in-depth look at an alternative culture.

Film Frenzy
The principal complaint, artistically, about Cruising is that it is not very clear at the rudimentary level of exposition of character and event. The problem... is in a script that never seems sure enough what it wants to say or prove.

Los Angeles Times
Here Steve's 'undercover' status serves as a metaphor for his closetedness (and vice versa) - while murder is committed at the behest of an internalised paternal voice of authority that regards homosexuality as a guilt that must be bloodily expunged.
