Katie Walsh Los Angeles Times 06/04/2015
The film, directed by veteran filmmaker Daniel Petrie Jr., attempts to stuff too many elements into the premise. Go to Full Review

1/4
The opposite of enlightenment, the film hides its anxieties behind a mlange of third-rate grit and playful xenophobia. Go to Full Review
MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher 06/16/2015
A repulsive and disgustingly manipulative roundrobin of revenge that veers from softcore porn to an emotionally ignorant parody of a family drama. Go to Full Review
Chris Barsanti Film Journal International 06/03/2015
By the time the film gets to a genuinely interesting moment in the final scenes it will be hard for most viewers to stop stifling their laughter. Go to Full Review

11/11/2017 I only got through 27 minutes of the movie. Who writes this shit. See more 12/02/2015 throughout our lives we are told that the difference between evil and confused is the gray area in the middle. this movie exemplifies this. while it is not the best acting in the world, I believe this film should receive and deserve a watch from you based on the pure fact that the message portrayed is well thought out and dramatically played out. See more 11/27/2015 Pretty bloody awful with a completely ridiculous storyline and an annoying abrupt ending. Scott Eastwood is the best thing in it, which isn't difficult, but it gets one star just cos he's pretty to look at! See more 11/22/2015 Scott Eastwood needs to pick better scripts than this to walk in his fathers footsteps. The film feels long despite its 87 minute running time and has a weak script with characters doing dumb things. It's watchable but forgettable. See more 06/05/2015 Dawn Patrol feels like wanting to tell a complicated story, twisted by unrealistic characters, but ends confusing it more. It is sad and depressing, and the flashback strategy, poor script and severe direction only worsen it. See more Read all reviews
