The military draft is back. Three best friends are drafted and given 30 days to report for duty. In that time they're forced to confront everything they believe about courage, duty, love, friendship and honor. If called to serve, what would you do?
Leave your thoughts about Day Zero.
| New York TimesStephen HoldenIts view of the near future may be vaguely plausible and its performances persuasive, but its formulaic construction, internal inconsistencies and fuzzy ending undermine its integrity. It has nothing to say about the big issues -- manhood, war and friendship -- that hasn’t been explored with more depth and honesty in a hundred other movies. |
| CinemaBlend.comLexi FeinbergThis is not a watered-down take on what would happen if the men we know got drafted--it aims for the jugular. And hits it, hard. |
| CompuserveHarvey S. KartenAn implausible story centering on three characters whose differences in social class and temperament make the proceedings less than involving. |
| DVDTalk.comBrian OrndorfIt's purely amateur hour here; a laughably produced elegy for the common man facing war time blues, placing substantial dramatic weight on the shoulders of one of Hollywood's larger professional question marks, Chris Klein. Ouch. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyThe semi-plausible Day Zero, a rather formulaic male buddy saga, asks hypothetical questions about the impact of a reinstated draft on three vastly different amigos, well played by Klein, Wood, and particularly Bernthal. |
| Sin MagazineAustin KennedyIt's not a groundbreaking film, but I liked the gritty feel of it. It's a small, little movie that manages to be thought provoking enough for me to recommend it. |
| Filmcritic.comNorm Schragerno one will mistake this earnest try for Medium Cool. Maybe just Smallish Cool. |
| TV GuideMaitland McDonaghThe actors -- especially Klein and Bernthal -- deliver startlingly powerful performances. |
| New York PostKyle SmithA lukewarm film about what might happen to three New York City friends if the draft were reinstated, proves that even the most controversial of topics can be the basis for the dullest indie films. |
| Boxoffice MagazineAnnlee EllingsonThrough portraits of these three men, [director] Cole uses the possibility to explore themes of loyalty and duty, masculinity, class conflicts and a youth culture gone soft and spoiled, at times slipping into political rhetoric. |
