Movie Reviews

New York Observer - 8/10 by Rex ReedUnflinchingly written and directed by Austin, Texas-based filmmaker Ric Roman Waugh, it’s too unnerving to recommend to the squeamish, but for anyone curious enough to find out what really happens to turn decent people into savages in the bedlam of the American prison system, this is one for the must-see list.
Guardian - 8/10 by Peter BradshawMy expectations here were tepid. But Shot Caller turns out to be a really taut, tense, prison-set thriller, a little like Jacques Audiard's A Prophet and longform television such as Breaking Bad or The Wire.
The List - 8/10 by Emma SimmondsThe melancholic brand of machismo and Coster-Waldau's affecting turn never fail to mesmerise in a film that consistently foregrounds the human cost of crime.
Film Journal International - 8/10 by Edward DouglasA brilliantly made film, unlike anything else out there, and it teaches a valuable lesson about what the penal system's cycle of violence can do to an honest man.
NYC Movie Guru - 8/10 by Avi OfferCaptivating and emotionally gritty with a raw, commanding performance by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.
3AW - 7/10 by Jim SchembriA tightly packed, top-shelf crime drama with a great cast.
Punch Drunk Critics - 7/10 by Travis HopsonThe particulars are nothing we haven't seen before, but it's the deep characterization of Waldau's character that sets Shot Caller apart.
Under the Radar - 7/10 by Kyle MullinThe film feels akin to a Sons of Anarchy episode without that series' melodrama, depicting an unrealistic, thoroughly macho plot with grounded visuals and performances.
Village Voice - 7/10 by Pete Vonder HaarShot Caller is Coster-Waldau’s show, and he’s up to the task.
The Hollywood Reporter - 7/10 by Stephen FarberShot Caller may cover little new ground but navigates familiar terrain with considerable skill.
