New York AP review of Murderous Angels depicts a failed blend of fact and fiction about 1960 61 Congo UN crisis with Dag Hammarskjold and Patrice Lumumba. Performances by Jean-Pierre Aumont and Lou Gossett are praised for believability but scripts and dialogue judged weak and biased.

Clive Barnes of the New York Times hails it as a good provocative political play that excites the mind and should be seen. Douglas Watt of the Daily News calls it absorbing though more treatise than play. Richard Watts Jr of the New York Post deems it meritless while Leonard Harris of WCBS TV offers a mixed but admiring view.
