Dark Blue Ratings & Reviews
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
Violent police detective teaches his partner.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
As Perry literally descends into hell during the L.A. riots, the film takes on an eerie melancholia powered by Russell's impassioned lead.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
Well worth recommending.
The Hollywood Reporter
Michael Rechtshaffen
Fails to make the grade as either a gritty crime drama or an intriguing piece of historical relevance.
Filmcritic.com
Nick Schager
Shelton, working from a script by David Ayer, is eager to use each and every cliché at his disposal.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Harrowing and compulsively watchable morality play.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
The movie ends not with a bang but a wimp.
USA Today
Mike Clark
Until it dissolves into conventional melodrama during a climactic fracas, this fast-paced story is never less than watchable.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
A flawed film, but occasionally a haunting one.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
While Dark Blue may not be easy to watch, it's exceptionally well made.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Dark Blue is a film of wounding power. It stays with you.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
While much of the action rings true in Dark Blue, and the events leading up to the riots make for a tense, eerie framework, the movie heads in a disastrous direction ...
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
Dark Blue is a bit of a mess, but like the Rodney King mess, it makes you think. Any film that accomplishes that can never be out-of-date.
Newsday
John Anderson
Gritty, gripping, a bit uneven, but Kurt Russell hits all the right notes.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Too many elements of David Ayers' screenplay fall flat, from individual lines to Bobby's sudden change of heart.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
The script throws enough curveballs to raise Dark Blue slightly above the genre average.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Dark Blue is not a great movie, but it has moments that go off the meter and find visceral impact.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Those who criticized Training Day for its lack of credibility will be rolling their eyes at the nonchalance with which Dark Blue plays the race card.
San Jose Mercury News
Bruce Newman
Speedman doesn't show much in his first big movie role, while Russell shows too much.
