United States	Claudia Puig USA Today	"Unlike many action thrillers where the viewer is fairly certain that no real harm can come to the protagonists, such is never the case here. In this gritty ride-along, we sense that anything can happen (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Betsy Sharkey Los Angeles Times	"A visceral story of beat cops that is rare in its sensitivity, rash in its violence and raw in its humor"	POS
United States	Manohla Dargis The New York Times	"A muscular, maddening exploitation movie embellished with art-house style and anchored by solid performances"	POS
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"'End of Watch' gives you the savage whoosh of being on a job that can get you killed (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)"	POS
