By Brian Orndorf (4,059) for Blu-ray.com (2,093) on 19 Sep 2012

It's every cop movie you've ever seen but from a fresh angle: You go into each situation without a clue about its outcome…

Review of End of Watch (2012)

By Liz Braun (961) for Jam! Movies (2,396) on 19 Sep 2012

So completely does filmmaker David Ayer get you to invest in these characters that you'll watch half the film with your hands over your face…

Review of End of Watch (2012)

By James Berardinelli (4,524) for ReelViews (4,523) on 19 Sep 2012

The problem with End of Watch, a gripping police drama, is director David Ayer's stylistic decision to shoot nearly the entire movie tripod-less…

Review of End of Watch (2012)

By Eric Kohn (1,203) for indieWire (3,631) on 19 Sep 2012

By virtue of its style and high stakes scenario, End of Watch is impressively tense, but then so are most episodes of COPS, which don't suffer…

Review of End of Watch (2012)

By Marc Savlov (2,019) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 19 Sep 2012

End of Watch is more than the sum of its parts, though; it ends on a downbeat note, but that's something I've come to expect from Ayer…

Review of End of Watch (2012)

By Lisa Schwarzbaum (1,672) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 19 Sep 2012

Review of End of Watch (2012)

By Steve Persall (1,105) for Tampa Bay Times (1,287) on 19 Sep 2012

End of Watch is a repellent movie, first for its shaky-cam conceit rendering much of the action incomprehensible, and finally for seeking to…

Review of End of Watch (2012)

By Clint O'connor (453) for Cleveland Plain Dealer (828) on 19 Sep 2012

Your Action Fix. In lesser hands the video-verite could be annoying. But Ayer deftly incorporates it into the story…

Review of End of Watch (2012)

By Matt Pais (1,519) for RedEye (906) on 19 Sep 2012

Refreshingly resists adhering to an episodic encounter with a specific group ... It's just two men protecting themselves and each other…

Review of End of Watch (2012)

By Josh Larsen (2,042) for LarsenOnFilm (1,412) on 19 Sep 2012

like a Tony Scott film made with less flair and cheaper equipment…

By Peter Howell (1,731) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 19 Sep 2012
