It's mostly a pro forma police procedural spiced by a baroque twist that Eastwood doesn't really know what to do with.

It doesn't sound bad...but Bloodwork is bad, oh, lordy, yes, it is.
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

It can be argued, I suppose, that Blood Work was designed from the outset not so much as a whodunit as a why-and-how-dunit, and here the film becomes metaphysically ingenious.
Andrew Sarris, New York Observer

Even as it ends in a flurry of absurd plot twists, Blood Work holds you in a vise.
