Critic Reviews
-
Robert Abele, Los Angeles Times
Shoot on Sight has good intentions but winds up a thematically simplistic, dryly plotted and perfunctorily shot melodrama, one of those movies where dialogue is there to categorize people, not parse the complexities of human beings.
-
Lou Lumenick, New York Post
A veteran London police in spector who's a devout Mus lim is intriguingly at the center of Jag Mundhra's Shoot on Sight, which starts out as a thriller inspired by that city's 2005 Tube and bus bombings but gets bogged down in a family soap opera.
-
Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times
Marrying small-screen formula to big-screen actors, Shoot on Sight is an earnest melodrama that struggles to surmount its good intentions.
-
Aaron Hillis, Village Voice
A crude network-TV event of a movie.
-
Maitland McDonagh, Miss FlickChick
A tediously earnest, well-intentioned and scrupulously even handed [topical thriller], in the style of made-for-TV problem movies.
