- Excerpt: The extreme juxtaposition of a large and loving Mexican family..and the cold-blooded psychopathy of Mexican drug cartels spilling into L.A.’s South Central neighborhood…really slams home the value of a life often treated cheaply.
- Jim Dixon @ Examiner.com
- Excerpt: Whether or not writer/director David Ayers intended “End of Watch” as penance for his earlier movie “Street Kings,” which is probably not a favorite of the LAPD, his latest movie is a cinematic ride-along which also serves as a love letter to the boys in blue.
- Mark Dujsik @ Mark Reviews Movies
- Excerpt: Once one gets past the obvious artifice and lack of internal logic in the execution of the gimmick … it lends some legitimate immediacy to the proceedings.

- Excerpt: Insightful and intense, emphasizing not only the importance of brotherhood and teamwork but also the cinematic chemistry between Gyllenhaal and Pena.

- MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: Howls with a messy, human authenticity that transcends genre tropes to smack you in the face with beseeching truths about the contradictions of police work.

- Excerpt: Shaky-cam and all, End of Watch is an especially realistic, gritty police drama that features some taut action and terrific performances from its two leads.

- Amir Siregar @ Flick Magazine [Indonesian]
- Cole Smithey @ ColeSmithey.com
- Excerpt: “End of Watch” is a gritty brief apologia from writer-director David Ayer for his less than complimentary Los Angeles copsploitation films “Training Day” and “Harsh Times.”
