Reception

TV Guide said, "Despite its busy script, BOUNTY TRACKER never gives way to confusion or loses its momentum in expository details. More concerned with visceral action than suspense, the film is a valid showcase for Lamas' athletic prowess."[1] The film was internationally distributed, for example in Germany as Head Hunter[2] and in Italy as Poliziotto a Los Angeles[3] The film's martial art scenes were generally noted as one of its key features.[4] [5]
