	Media	Author	Review
		Dennis Harvey Variety	"Wobbly material lets down TV veteran Terry McDonough’s first theatrical feature, an Edinburgh-set mystery that delights in its gruesome crime scenes."
		Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times	"The ride here is dark and uncompromising (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"
		Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"A routine cop movie mainly distinguished by its extensive Scottish locations"
		Tyler Nichols JoBlo	"If there’s one thing a good mystery needs, it’s something unexpected. And 'Damaged' certainly has that. (...) Rating: ★★★★★★ (out of 10)"
		Christie Cronan Common Sense Media	"The predictable storyline has the usual serial killer cliches, characters lack depth and relatability, and, frankly, it's short on thrills, with anticlimactic suspense and an even more anticlimactic ending (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
		Tyler Doupe Dread Central	"[It] may suffice for die-hard fans of formulaic crime thrillers but anyone else should take a pass (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"
