Reception

The Jerusalem File was met with mixed reception from critics. A. H. Weiler of The New York Times concluded his review stating, “The politics, the disparate motivations and the implicit drama of youth defeated by a world they don’t want are only vaguely projected and are secondary to the chase and shoot-em-up action of The Jerusalem File.”
