Entertainment Reviews:
[Across 110th Street] is well-made, realistic in presentation and effect with uniformly good portrayals from actors, but depressingly lacking in a sympathetic focal point for audiences to grasp.

Rating: A --
[VIDEO] As exaggerated as the violence appears, it is in keeping with the social climate of the time. No punches are pulled, and rightly so.

Rating: B+ --
One of the best actioners of the 1970s, this unpretentious film benefits from sharp editing, on-location shooting and strong acting.

Extremely seedy and violent, this 1972 feature by Barry Shear and cinematographer Jack Priestley makes extraordinary use of Harlem locations.

Before studios insisted on an injection of sugary sentiment, this what what a New York cop thriller looked like.

Rating: B- --
Gritty and mindful of perspective, the feature is a bruising examination of power and desperation, filled with energetic chases and fiery confrontations.

Barry Shear's picture tries to be hard-edged and aim for realism, but doesn't always succeed.

Product Description:
The robbery of a Mafia numbers house in Harlem of $300,000 by three black men dressed as police sets off a city-wide search for the perpetrators. Quinn and Kotto give fine performances as cops divided in the common search. Quinn, as a cop on the take for most of his career, must balance his greed and the inherent need for justice in this gripping story. Excellent footage of Harlem as we see the Mafia and the police simultaneously try to track down the hoods.
