| PopMattersCynthia FuchsPlots don't come more worn out than this one. |
| Apollo GuideBrian WebsterHas a certain amount of style, but not enough to make up for its weak story, sometimes-languid pace, and Vin Diesel's inability to deliver a line of more than four words. |
| Countingdown.comLarry CarrollThis is a movie that should have starred one of the forgotten Baldwins and premiered at the bottom of a discount bin. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderWhatever appeal Diesel normally has is watered down in this flavorless cop film that refuses to stop until it has checked off every cliché on the list. |
| Journal News (Westchester, NY)Marshall FineThere is a lot of graphic violence in A Man Apart, but there is little with the super-charged tension Gray strives for. |
| Dallas Morning NewsTom MaurstadPointless, predictable mayhem of an action film and the leaden pretensions of an art-house wannabe. |
| L.A. WeeklyErnest HardyA Man Apart isn't awful, but it is almost reflexively rote, evoking countless other outlaw-cop films that are smarter, tighter and more fun. |
| Good Morning AmericaJoel SiegelIf I hadn't seen Traffic, this would still stink, but I wouldn't know how badly. Diesel runs on fumes in this one. |
| VarietyRobert KoehlerDiesel makes a violent bid to align himself with the Clint Eastwood-Charles Bronson-Steve McQueen tradition, but he lacks the charisma, emotional strength and humor to do so. |
| London Evening StandardAlexander WalkerFilms like A Man Apart pretend to deal with social issues. That is their cover story. But in fact, they themselves are the Hollywood equivalent of the coke trade. They corrupt the entertainment industry. |
