Policeman Reviews
AV Club
Ben Kenigsberg
Policeman creates contrasts between families and surrogate families; patriarchy and maternity; truth and fiction; and sanctioned and unsanctioned aggression.
RogerEbert.com
Godfrey Cheshire
Obviously, this tale engages many hot-button issues in present-day Israel. But does it say anything particularly incisive or meaningful about their complexity?
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
Israel's fractured psyche is plumbed via narrative splintering in Policeman, Nadav Lapid's compelling drama about his homeland's burgeoning social unrest.
The Dissolve
Mike D'Angelo
Lapid's sense of rhythm is as clunky as his compositions... [Policeman] perversely ends at the exact moment that it finally gets interesting.
Film-Forward.com
Kent Turner
Director Nadav Lapid, in his feature debut, over-emphasizes the rituals of machismo, from the back slapping (thump, thump, thump) to the fetishizing of guns that carries over the entire film.
Cinema Signals
Jules Brenner
Staging of scenes, klutzy editing and what I suspect are actors self-directing, challenges the storytelling and its uniformity.
Entertainment Weekly
Chris Nashawaty
The slow-building import nicely captures the macho, band-of-brothers bond. But that's the only spark this otherwise chilly and remote film has to offer.
New Yorker
Richard Brody
Lapid's workmanlike direction illustrates his airless script efficiently, and sometimes engagingly, but unimaginatively. He has something to say; he shows very little.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Mr. Lapid, making an electrifying feature directing debut, traces the line between the group and the individual in a story that can be read as a commentary on the world as much as on Israel.
Hollywood Reporter
Todd McCarthy
A boldly conceived and bracingly told political drama.
Village Voice
Michael Nordine
Nadav Lapid's Policeman deftly examines the physical and spiritual fallout of ideology turning into action.
Film Comment Magazine
Nicolas Rapold
Yet from the get-go an ambient unease has been built into the film's thoughtful cutting and framing, more Antonioni than Haneke.
Variety
Alissa Simon
Fascinating but uneven.
