The [[Allmusic]] review states "Everything on the album is visually evocative the way good soundtrack music should be, yet the individual cuts are tight and melodic enough to hold up to repeated listens. The end result is a soundtrack that succeeds both as a film score and a stand-alone album. This unique combination makes [[Bullitt]] one of the finest achievements in the Lalo Schifrin catalog and one of the best action film scores ever written".<ref>Guarisco, D. A.
