"...Satisfying and engaging....EYES OF LAURA MARS is a very stylish thriller..."
Variety - Hege. (08/02/1978)

"...It's the cleverness of EYES OF LAURA MARS that counts, cleverness that manifests itself in superlative casting, dryly controlled direction from Irvin Kershner and spectacular settings that turn New York into the kind of eerie, lavish dreamland that could exist only in the idle noodlings of the very, very hip..."
New York Times - Janet Maslin (08/04/1978)
