Special Forces commando Parker (Jessica Alba) is on active duty overseas when she gets called back to her hometown with the tragic news that her father has suddenly died. Now the owner of the family bar, Parker reconnects with her former boyfriend-turned-sheriff Jesse (Mark Webber), his hot-tempered brother Elvis (Jake Weary) and their powerful father Senator Swann (Anthony Michael Hall), as she looks to understand what actually happened to her dad. Parker's search for answers quickly goes south and she soon finds herself at odds with a violent gang running rampant in her hometown. Unsure of who she can truly trust, Parker draws on her commando training and proves herself a force to be reckoned with as she hunts down the truth and attempts to right what has gone wrong in Swann County, with the help of her covert ops partner and hacker Spider (Tone Bell) and connected local dealer Mike (Gabriel Basso).

Critics Consensus

Trigger Warning sure packs a punch when doling out clichés and dialing up the snooze fest.

TheWrap

Some B-movies, of course, are highly entertaining. This one, though, seems like it was as much of a slog to make as it is to watch.

Think of just about any way to spend a couple hours and it's better than this.

Empire Magazine

An unremarkable and quickly forgettable B-movie. Jessica Alba makes a decent stab for John Wick’s particular brand of movie vengeance, but she needs better material than this.

Rated: 2/5

Trigger Warning is a lacklustre family dramedy that rarely feels original. Jessica Alba makes her return to screens in this Netflix original and stretches the boundaries of believability as a US marine. Best avoided.

Its great to see Jessica Alba back in action but there is nothing "special" about it all.

Rated: 5/10

This action film does a proficient job sustaining tension, but its settings, characters, and plot feel like a blend of ideas you've seen before. Trigger Warning's political message is also a little spotty, making a tenuous connection

It wasn't awful enough for me to turn off early... I finished it, but I was disappointed with it overall. Wouldn't recommend, won't watch again.

No, it wasn;t a brilliant film. But it was entertaining, and sometimes, that's enough. It's not the type of film I usually watch - I tend to avoid things with too much violence, but something kept me entertained enought o watch it all the way through and feel satisfied with it at the end.
