Reception

edit

Officer Downe received generally negative reviews. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a 33% "fresh" rating with an average score of 4.9 out of 10.[10] Scott Tobias, writing for Variety, called it a “thoroughly repugnant piece of comic-book juvenalia.”[11] Mike D’Angelo, critic for The A.V. Club wrote, “Officer Downe has no real story and no point of view-just endless, assaultive testosterone.”[12]

IGN awarded it a score of 6.8 out of 10, saying "While it has some enjoyable moments, there are too many missed opportunities when the film could have taken it to the next level."[13]
