Leslie Felperin Guardian Sep 16
3/5
The last few miles of the screenplay are more than a little predictable, but this isn’t at all bad for a directorial debut. Go to Full Review
Dave Golder Radio Times Sep 19
3/5
The humour veers between Tarantino-style laconic quipping and broader, goofier moments, delivering a decent amount of laughs, plus across-the-board charismatic performances. Go to Full Review

Bad Man ends up a fine enough movie when credits roll. But there are enough strong moments to suggest it could’ve been far better. Go to Full Review
M.N. Miller FandomWire Sep 5
4/10
Bad Man coasts on Seann William Scott’s familiar “Stifler-grown-up” energy, which remains the film’s only real spark. Despite his talent, the movie wavers, collapsing into a muddled third act that leaves it more confounding than compelling. Go to Full Review

Roger P F @RPfoley Dec 8 If my friends and I bought a camera and made a movies in early 90s this would be it. Fun movie from acting perspective. Paul felder from UFC I knew it was him fun silly movie See more Elliott B Nov 22 Absolute terrible. Not funny at all, bad acting. See more Cavanşir G @drgadimov Oct 30 The first half left me lost—murky plot, zero laughs, and Seann William Scott flailing between funny and serious like he forgot the script; I almost bailed. Then the back half kicked in with real crime tension, solid action, and Johnny Simmons absolutely owning the sidelined local cop, while Chance Perdomo’s final DJ role broke my heart with effortless charm. Comedy hit-or-miss, thriller barely there, but that line “There are no good men. Only bad men and those who they bend” stuck hard. At 6/10, it’s a messy one-time watch—worth it for the late spark and Perdomo’s memory, but don’t expect genre balance. See more Les N Oct 24 How did this movie get such good reviews? See more Jerod S @jeroduptown Oct 24 Small town cop is trying to run down a meth ring when Sean William Scott almost ruins everything by impersonating a fed.
