Goes where all too few films dare to venture these days -- into the heart of moral darkness.Full Review

Lisa Schwarzbaum
Entertainment Weekly

Flaws and all, Dark Blue has a combustible energy that's usually anathema to Hollywood, reopening an old wound that has festered too quietly for more than a decade.Full Review

Scott Tobias
The Onion (A.V. Club)

Shelton's harrowing and compulsively watchable morality play.Full Review

Michael O'Sullivan
Washington Post

Not a great movie, but it has moments that go off the meter and find visceral impact. The characters driving through the riot-torn streets of Los Angeles provide some of them, and the savage, self-hating irony of Russell's late dialogue provides the rest.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

While Dark Blue may not be easy to watch, it's exceptionally well made.Full Review
