- 75Slant MagazineSlant MagazineLe Mans needs to be rediscovered so that it can be hopefully embraced as one of star Steve McQueen’s finest hours.
- 60TV Guide MagazineTV Guide MagazineRacing fans should love Le Mans' dazzling documentary-like photography, including actual footage from the 1969 and 1970 races, but those who are more interested in an involving story may be disappointed.
- It is an unsatisfying film because we know no more about the people at the end than we did at the beginning, in fact, very little at all.
- Dramatically, the picture is a bore. And neither the oblique approach to these time-out sequences nor a ripe score by Michel Legrand manages to juice things up.
