Reception
TV Guide gave the film a negative review: "Although it adequately sets up its complicated (if cliched) storyline, it falls apart in the last reel, particularly in Gossett's vaguely motivated switch to a bad guy (it has something to do with him losing his life savings in one of the burned buildings)."
David Parkinson of Radio Times awarded the film two stars out of five and wrote, "Carelessly directed by Elliot Silverstein (whose previous work includes Cat Ballou and A Man Called Horse), this muddled tale of corruption and conspiracy comes to an abrupt and highly unsatisfactory conclusion."
