Review For End of Watch | |
| Ayer and his cast appear to have so convincingly nailed the way these characters talk and act that you might not even notice the film slipping from workaday grit into out-and-out myth. Bilge Ebiri-New York Magazine The actors, both excellent, get right into Ayer's groove. So by the time we arrive at the unsparing climax, we really know and care about these guys. Elizabeth Weitzman-New York Daily News Gyllenhaal and Pena are after a lived-in camaraderie and a street-level realism. Pena, especially, succeeds; you buy him every second. Michael Phillips-Chicago Tribune The performances here are so sharp that viewers may wish End of Watch has been shot by someone who knew how to find the right point of view for a scene and leave it there. Richard Corliss-TIME Magazine Jumpy and exciting. David Denby-New Yorker Both actors are marvelous -- this may be the most nuanced and far-ranging performance Gyllenhaal has ever given -- and writer-director David Ayer is unapologetically frank about the dangers these men face. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor What gives it life are the performances of Gyllenhaal and Peña. They emerge as beacons of friendship in a bleak world of barred windows, barking dogs and strutting gangsters. Jay Stone-National Post It leaves you wondering -- who is filming the Gyllenhaal/Anna Kendrick love scenes? Jake Mulligan-Boston Phoenix Nicely balanced between savage violence and sweet human interactions, and it whips along at a brisk pace. Kurt Loder-Reason Online The street characters are played by a remarkable panoply of real-life types who speak in a thrilling, totally believable patois. CJ Johnson-ABC Radio (Australia) Planning on shooting your next movie handheld? Hoping for that realism dividend? Please read this first. Ed Whitfield-The Ooh Tray A strong sense of camaraderie sets this edgy police thriller apart from the crowd. And it's also a change of direction for writer-director David Ayer, who has explored the dark side of police corruption in Training Day, Harsh Times and Street Kings. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com Both actors are first rate, their friendship palpable, their professional conduct (tempered by practical joking and youthful bravado) convincing. Philip French-Observer [UK] If I was a big-city American policeman watching this, I would also wonder just whose side Ayer is on. I'd be more nervous about going to the work the next day. Not less. Graham Young-Birmingham Mail Ayers's warmest film to date finds meaning and depth in its "I love you, man" exchanges and rarely goes too long without staging some daring detective work and videogame ultraviolence. Tara Brady-Irish Times One to watch, but through narrowed eyes. -This is London Writer and director David Ayer has created a pair of real, untainted heroes - which makes this a rare cinematic treat you have to watch. End of. Grant Rollings-Sun Online The two leading performances are exemplary in their honesty and good-heartedness, with Gyllenhaal in particular showing why he's a star. Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK] Srong on character and atmosphere but weak on story and excitement. Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express Despite the violence and procedural detail, this is about as gritty as Dixon of Dock Green. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK] Some fiction movies knock politely on the door to gain attention, others kick it in. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times Gripping, impressively shot cop thriller that comes across as the nice guy version of The Shield, thanks to a strong script and a pair of terrific performances from Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena.
