Chicago Sunday Times Roger Ebert The film has a basic strength in its performances and craft, but falls short of the high mark Fuqua obviously set for himself. | 15 | |
eye Weekly Chandler Levack Brooklyn’s Finest seems to enjoy indulging the actors, but it’s about as authentic as a rap video and twice as inconsiderate to the seedy crime world that Fuqua can’t help but glorify. | 5 | |
Rolling Stone Peter Travers Brooklyn's Finest is a cop movie so shallow, dumb, derivative and infuriating that it feels like a parody of bad cop movies. | 0 | |
ScreenIt C. Fuchs Mediocre as an overall experience and weighed down by one genre cliché after another | 9 | |

Rottentomatoes tomatometer Tomatometer It's appropriately gritty, and soaked in the kind of palpable tension Antoine Fuqua delivers so well, but Brooklyn's Finest suffers from the comparisons its cliched script provokes. | 9 | |
