Adam Nayman The Ringer 07/31/2018
Excellently shot and acted, and gutsy enough to not cop out when it counts, Calibre is one of the year's best genre efforts. Go to Full Review
Leslie Felperin Guardian 06/29/2018
4/5
Feels simultaneously familiar and fresh, just like a good, solid bout of genre-tweaking should do. Go to Full Review
Neil Young The Hollywood Reporter 06/29/2018
Calibre [has] a pungent, intriguing layer of ambiguity that only sharpens the acute pain of the awful events so skillfully depicted. Go to Full Review
Alistair Lawrence Common Sense Media 07/07/2025
Packed into the pressure cooker of a remote rural community that's fallen on hard times, Calibre boasts a title that's a neat play on words as well as a couple of breakout performances. Go to Full Review
Howard Gorman NME (New Musical Express) 06/10/2021
The premise of Palmer's feature debut might be nothing new but it navigates its well-trodden territory amazingly well by deep diving into the relationships between old friends and new acquaintances in the quaint-yet-oppressive village setting. Go to Full Review
Jordy Sirkin Jordy Reviews It 09/02/2020
A completely unexpected, twisted film that builds tension in terrifying fashion, leaving you mentally drained and conflicted by the end. Go to Full Review

Alan M @Alanmcshoea 5d If youre looking for a edge of your seat heart in mouth thriller , youve definitely come to the wrong place, this film is very predictable and boring Its shot very well good acting but drags on See more Emmette S @saheeb21 Aug 17 2 stars is generous and is only given because the acting is good. Beyond that, this is a pretty boring "thriller." There is little to no character development. The entire, predictable plot could pretty much be written on a single sheet of paper. Why this movie got so many rave reviews is beyond me. See more Mark B @Burrellius Aug 5 Streamed this one at home. There were enough twists and turns and wow moments to make it a good watch and a positive rating but lacked enough to make it "great". See more J H @UpstateNYThriller Jul 22 7.1/10 Two UK friends go hunting in rural Scotland. One accidently shoots a child and his father. Hey hide them and then have to search with the locals until they find out who killed them Then the locals hunt them down See more Lamce S @RT79122045 May 19 I didnt think that a best friend who wouldnt kill Bambi kill his best friend. He should of urned and shot the bad bully guy. See more Jack P @JPaul500 Apr 16 It's between Calibre and Drive for my favorite independent film... See more Read all reviews
