George Parker The "Justice With a Bullet" episode of "Naked City", a series of journeyman cops and drama stories set in NYC, involves a contract on detective Halloran (Vance) and a couple of midwest young female tourists who find themselves in trouble with gangsters. An entertaining flick which doesn't take itself too seriously, "Naked City: JWAB" is an okay no brainer watch for couch potatoes into crime flicks.

Kylic Naked City: JWAB does a pretty good job of balancing its two A - B stories, eventhough I'm not all that fond of multiple plot movies. And Scott Glen and Courtney B. Vance make a great on screen dual. However, I'm not sure what kind of message a movie sends when two flat-foot country girls can get off scott free with murder, grand theft, and to top it off, win a free flight home (in first class no less--at least from the looks of their attire anyway). Gee, I guess that blue wall of silence is still rather think!Rating: 8

Mark Seaman I don't usually like TV movies, I reckon that if the thing was any good it would make it to Hollywood. This one though is better than average, pretty high production values, a few interesting story twists and some nice shots of NYC (along with Toronto) hold the interest.

dumas This Showtime cable film features a talented cast and weaves together several storylines involving the darker side of New York... from the naive and innocent tourists' nightmarish adventure to a pair of undercover cops on the streets... to an old friend's betrayal, it has it all.Well worth a look, as is its sequel.
