In his review for AllMusic, William Ruhlmann gave the album three out of five stars, calling it Knopfler's "most ambitious and accomplished soundtrack."^[1] Ruhlmann noted that unlike Knopfler's first three soundtracks, the music for Last Exit to Brooklyn "did not sound like outtakes from Dire Straits sessions, but instead consisted of fully orchestrated scoring."^[1]
