Critics Consensus

Black and Blue is elevated by Naomie Harris' central performance, even if the end result suffers from a simplistic treatment of topical themes.

I really like the story line and the overall message of the film. In society today its as easy to judge someone by their job, title, or profession. The same way you would a person by the color of their skin or where theyre from. Gives me hope that there are Good Cops out there who believe in protecting the people!

The movie falters when pushed beyond its intriguing premise to a meaningful message.

Times (UK)

This is a film that pulls off the impressive trick of being gritty and cheesy at the same time.

Rated: 2/5

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

This is just a cops-ploitation, scream-at-the-screen picture, but I had a lot of fun with it with an audience.

M.N. Miller

Ready Steady Cut

After a promising start, with a strong Harris in the lead, Black and Blue gives way to a generic against time thriller.

Rated: 2.5/5

Next Best Picture

There’s an effective, nuanced way to tell a story tackling this issue. Black and Blue does the exact opposite of that, eschewing all nuance and subtlety to make the most generic version of this story as possible.

Rated: 3/10

I think that people right now feel that there needs to be some serious conversation about what we can do for reconciliation between the police and the community... This movie just doesn't contribute to that.
