The Onion Field
Description
John Savage and Ted Danson wanted to investigate a civil case by wearing civilian clothes in the US military and investigating a pair of suspicious species. Maybe that plan will fail exactly when one of the men kills Danson in cold blood. Savage managed to escape and arrested the rest of the men, as things seemed to be going at a completely different turn.

James Woods as the near-psychotic Powell is chillingly effective, creating a flakiness in the character that exudes the danger of a live wire near a puddle.September 10, 2011
Good acting and careful direction by Becker make it worth seeing, but the violence and the language may be too graphic for some tastes.

Ranks among the best crime films of the late 1970s...and that puts the flick among some rather impressive company.September 10, 2011
The Onion Field is a serious and most uncompromising movie. It lacks, however, the sort of disciplined craft that might have made it a powerful and affecting one.

The film is generally crisp and at times exciting, but it's also full of incidents that are only sketchily explained, and minus the all-important narrative thread that might have provided a clear point of view.January 26, 2006
It's the usual heavy Wambaugh brew: police procedure closely observed without a trace of romanticism, suggesting simply that life in the force is psychological hell.January 01, 2000
Thoughtful trial movie with a disturbing edge.September 10, 2011
Brutal, even sordid, but compulsive viewing.
