Leave your thoughts about Peace Officer.
| Austin ChronicleRod MachenPeace Officer makes a convincing case for a radical re-examination of the way force is used by police, and does so in a remarkable and compelling fashion. |
| Baret NewsKam WilliamsThe cinematic equivalent of a canary in the coal mine which issues a dire warning to the government to get SWAT teams under control before either the people revolt or the U.S. turns into a Fascistic police state. |
| Capital Times (Madison, WI)Rob ThomasDeftly weaving in Lawrence's crusade against the larger backdrop of recent changes in law enforcement philosophy, "Peace Officer" is as much on the side of cops as it is on the citizens. |
| Los Angeles TimesMichael SragowThe engrossing documentary Peace Officer looks at the militarization of police work from a fresh, provocative angle. |
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferSpellbinding, suspenseful and provocative. It's one of the most powerful films since The Thin Blue Line. |

| The Public (Buffalo)M. FaustA few of the revelations here are so disturbing that you realize an entire film of such stuff would be hard to sit through. |
| The PlaylistOktay Ege KozakPeace Officer creates an extremely timely narrative around a volatile issue and manages to not get lost in unproductive hyperbole. |
