Dennis Harvey Variety May 22
There’s no great effort at building tension, or orchestrating major setpieces. But the narrative moves along at an engaging clip, and there’s a pleasing emotional payoff to the way things ultimately come together in Farley’s screenplay. T Go to Full Review

If you’re a “they don’t make ‘em like they used to” type when it comes to genre, do have a look at this. It’ll very likely hit an old-school sweet (or sour) spot or two. Go to Full Review

Morgan is perfect for his role as a slightly unhinged former security guard as he does seem to have a soft spot for Quaid’s character. Overall this held my attention the whole time. Go to Full Review

7/10
It relies on familiar tropes of mystery and investigation, but it’s elevated by the unique performances of its two leads. Fans of either lead will find something to enjoy in this fairly by-the-numbers detective story Go to Full Review

‘Neighborhood Watch’ ultimately succeeds thanks to two very capable leads. Go to Full Review

Arch and attention-grabbing in all the wrong places, Neighborhood Watch has the kind of original screenplay that gives the form a bad name. Go to Full Review

Tim E. @Eskewsme 4d JD Morgan is always pretty captivating to watch on screen, and I appreciate the relatively short running time. The film was casually entertaining enough to hold my attention. I’d recommend it to a friend, if only to see how much they ultimately enjoy it. See more Leslie R. @lrobin01 5d I really liked it. The cinematography was well done. Character development was good. The story was plausible and developed with enough tension but was not overplayed. It was believable; had an authentic feel to it. I really enjoyed it. See more Ryan C. @djrmc24 6d Neighborhood Watch, starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Jack Quaid, not to be confused with ‘The Watch’ comedy film with Ben Stiller, is a decent crime thriller that is better then expected. I was expecting this movie to be more on the slow moving side but it actually moves at a decent pace. The film centers around Simon, a young man suffering from mental disability, played by Quaid, who believes he saw a woman getting kidnapped. He seeks the help of Ed, his neighbour, played by Morgan, who is a retired security guard, to locate the woman. The movie weaves in and out on what’s really happening and takes the audience for the ride. I was pleasantly surprised by this one and only came across it by scrolling on Hulu. The ending also has a nice payoff! Neighborhood Watch gets a solid 3 stars out of 5 from me. See more Jordyn S. @JordynSicard Dec 18 I liked the chemistry of both the main characters. Acting was pretty good, good plot. The scene at the end in the house was suspenseful, great part. See more J W @Iwatchlotsofmovies Dec 13 Dull and boring. The screenplay was great as a novel but not a movie. Jack Quaid is so much better than this. See more Anthony H. @Hardy Dec 6 Neighborhood Watch is a hilarious buddy cop film that delivers some great laughs. Jack Quaid and Jeffrey Dean Morgan deliver outstanding performances, effortlessly playing off each other and making the film enjoyable. The film also features some heartwarming moments that leave you smiling and feeling happy. However, the only reason it loses a star is due to some of the unrealistic elements. Despite this minor flaw, the film is overall a fun and thoroughly enjoyable watch. See more Read all reviews
