Critics Consensus

Led by a solid turn from the well-cast Thomas Jane, Crown Vic gets an impressive amount of mileage out of its familiar cop thriller framework.

1/5

This is mediocre, mostly forgettable drama, but it leaves a nasty taste.

My problem with this movie... is that it wants us to empathize with Thomas Jane's character. But the thing is, his character's just a crooked cop.

Writer-director Joel Souza's "Crown Vic" doesn't always balance those elements ideally, but it's still a respectable if non-revelatory cruise through a familiar terrain of mean streets and men in blue.

3/5

Kleintank does well as the innocent on the receiving end of a rude awakening, and Josh Hopkins is memorable as a plainclothes detective on the verge of a psychotic meltdown.

A tense and gritty crime drama which pulls no punches.

If the Oscar-caliber Training Day is like filet mignon, then Crown Vic is like a McDonald's hamburger.

I went on a ride-a-long on a Friday night some time ago with a field sergeant in the Newton division of LA. While he didn't shoot and kill anybody, the non-stop calls we responded to covered literally every situation you can think of - drive by shootings, traffic stops, car thefts, vandalism, etc, and him even playing social worker to marital disputes. So this film isn't that far off in many aspects.

A worthy addition to the canon of cop stories. Thomas Jane is outstanding.

A over-the-top and unbelievable in parts but overall a very entertaining cop movie. It all takes place in one night and follows the first night of a rookie cop and his training officer, the fantastic Thomas Jane. Surprisingly good movie and well directed.

I loved this movie. Contrary to what the critics have said, I found it mesmerizing. The kind of movie you can't look away from. Left me wanting more.
