Martin Tsai Los Angeles Times 03/20/2014
The premise that bruised feelings can get blown so far out of proportion and propel a veteran cop to risk his reputation and jettison his entire career is simply preposterous. Go to Full Review Neil Genzlinger New York Times 03/20/2014
The dour "McCanick" banks way too much on what it is not telling us, making for a movie that thinks it's being cryptically suspenseful but is really just annoying. Go to Full Review Jordan Hoffman New York Daily News 03/20/2014

It's a shame the script doesn't offer anything beyond loose-cannon-cop cliches. Go to Full Review Stephen Silver EntertainmentTell 05/27/2014
1/5
A completely by-the-numbers, cliched cop story for its first two thirds, before pivoting to an ending that's shocking but also totally indefensible. Go to Full Review Nikola Grozdanovic The Playlist 04/04/2014

McCanick may have worked as Chief Wiggum's favorite film in The Simpsons, but as a feature film in the real world it fails to convince, and succeeds only in frustrating. Go to Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru 04/03/2014

A ho-hum B-movie with an A-list cast. Besides the solid performances, it offers nothing else to hold your interest. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

mauro l @Mauro_Lanari 02/08/2019 Anti-homophobia is not a guarantee of a nice B movie. (Mauro Lanari) See more 02/23/2017 drab lifeless boring. an ageing cop trying to hunt down an ex contact he put behind bars years earlier. See more 02/21/2017 Moody cop-thriller, which is pretty much all about Morse's mindset. The plot gets convoluted towards its end. See more 12/01/2015 A brilliant and 'important' role for David Morse. Great story about one cop's obsession with a recent parolee. Morse and Monteith give subtle yet brilliant performances. Not the typical action movie one would expect. (2014 hidden gem) See more 06/22/2015 It's awfully sad Cory Monteith's last role was in this pile of garbage. See more 01/17/2015 Overly complicated and confusing and as a result somewhat boring. Not one I would ever want to watch again. See more Read all reviews
