The major asset of the film is that it succeeds in maintaining interest and suspense despite obvious viewer foreknowledge of the outcome.

I wasn't prepared for how good it really is: it's not just a suspense classic, but a beautifully executed example of filmmaking.

Chicago Sun-Times
It's a polished and exciting thriller, mercifully unburdened with heavy political/philosophical digressions.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
This is not a bad movie, it races by and entertains, after a fashion. It simply is not as good as it should have been.

The details are minutely observed and, to me, just a bit boring.

Description by OLDIES.com:
In 1971, Frederick Forsythe shot to bestseller status with his debut novel, The Day of the Jackal - taut, utterly plausible, almost documentarian in its realism and attention to detail. Two years later, director Fred Zinnemann (High Noon) turned a gripping novel into a nail-biting cinematic experience.
