End of Watch

<h2 id="plot">Plot</h2>
<a href="/facts/Los_Angeles_Police_Department/P4CvFHdY">Los Angeles Police Department</a> <a href="/facts/Police_officer/I8r0VjSm">officers</a> Brian Taylor and Mike Zavala are close friends and partners in the LAPD's Newton Division, assigned to patrol a high crime area of <a href="/facts/South_Central_Los_Angeles/6nsnP4VS">South Central Los Angeles</a>. Taylor, a <a href="/facts/United_States_Marine_Corps/J8JDlJG2">United States Marine Corps</a> veteran, records their activities for a college class after they return to duty from a recent <a href="/facts/Police_use_of_deadly_force_in_the_United_States/gQ6tU3sB">officer-involved shooting</a>.
At a public disturbance call, Tre, a <a href="/facts/Bloods/lDJ2EIPR">Bloods</a> gang member, yells racial insults at Zavala, who responds by accepting a one-on-one fistfight. Zavala wins and earns Tre's respect for not charging him with assault. Later that night, Tre and his fellow Bloods are attacked in a <a href="/facts/Drive-by_shooting/QemS0FQw">drive-by shooting</a> by the <a href="/facts/Mexican-American/sw5sfgPF">Mexican-American</a> Curbside Gang. The following night, the officers respond to a noise complaint at a house party, where Taylor and Zavala encounter Curbside Gang members "Big Evil" and "LaLa". Taylor and Zavala rescue children from a house fire while on patrol and are awarded the <a href="/facts/Los_Angeles_Police_Medal_of_Valor/gVt1BT3Y">Medal of Valor</a>.
During a <a href="/facts/Traffic_stop/J5BfnuoC">traffic stop</a>, they arrest a man who is in possession of several ornate firearms and large amounts of cash. Taylor urges Zavala to join him in investigating further, leading them to another man guarding a home full of <a href="/facts/Human_trafficking/07sKSjt4">human trafficking</a> victims. When <a href="/facts/U.S._Immigration_and_Customs_Enforcement/tX1kde9l">ICE</a> agents intervene, the officers learn that the house is tied to the <a href="/facts/Sinaloa_Cartel/mSGb8FgH">Sinaloa Cartel</a> and are strongly urged to stay clear due to possible reprisals. Taylor soon becomes engaged to his girlfriend Janet, and Zavala's wife Gabby gives birth to their first child.
One night, Taylor and Zavala respond to a call from their <a href="/facts/Rookie/AHssPGBD">rookie</a> fellow officer, Sook. Arriving on scene, they find her partner Van Hauser has been stabbed through the eye and rescue Sook from being savagely beaten nearby; both survive but promptly retire. Taylor marries Janet, and at their wedding Zavala tells Taylor that, should anything happen to him, he will take care of Janet. The next day, the officers are called to perform a wellness check on an elderly woman, but in her house they discover large amounts of <a href="/facts/Heroin/rYwrKHPk">heroin</a>, dismembered corpses, and a message from the cartel. Unbeknownst to them, the ICE has eavesdropped on a cartel phone call ordering the two officers "<a href="/facts/Contract_killing/ngntdQ01">green-lit</a>" for assassination; Big Evil, LaLa, and others are tasked with killing them.
While on patrol, the officers encounter Tre who, as a favor from their earlier encounter, warns them that some friends who were recently released from <a href="/facts/Folsom_State_Prison/MFlKBaap">Folsom State Prison</a> learned that both officers were green-lit, but Taylor and Zavala shrug it off. Taylor reveals to Zavala that Janet is pregnant. Taylor and Zavala are baited into chasing a reckless driver into an apartment complex where they are ambushed by the Curbside Gang. They kill several gangsters and fight their way into an alley, but Taylor is shot in the chest. As Zavala tries to treat Taylor's injuries, the assassins arrive and fire on the officers, apparently killing them. Shortly after, LAPD backup arrives in force and guns down the assassins when they refuse to surrender.
Zavala is killed, but Taylor survives, having been shielded by Zavala's body. At Zavala's funeral, Taylor tries to deliver a <a href="/facts/Eulogy/81QCVB7j">eulogy</a> but only manages to say a single sentence: "He was my brother". In a <a href="/facts/Flashback_(narrative)/yhReVjMu">flashback</a> to the day of the shooting, Zavala recounts to Taylor a humorous story from the first time he and his wife slept together, before the two receive a call from dispatch.

<h3>Critical response</h3>
On review aggregator <a href="/facts/Rotten_Tomatoes/rLs7ktSY">Rotten Tomatoes</a> the film has an 85% approval rating based on 183 reviews, with an average rating of 7.2/10. The website's consensus states: "End of Watch has the energy, devotion to characters, and charismatic performances to overcome the familiar pitfalls of its genre and handheld format."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:39" href="#fn:39">39</a> On <a href="/facts/Metacritic/Wve8EJFd">Metacritic</a>, the film has a score of 68 out of 100, based on reviews from 37 critics, indicating "generally favorable" reviews.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:40" href="#fn:40">40</a> Audiences polled by <a href="/facts/CinemaScore/s1IQX2qM">CinemaScore</a> gave the film an average grade of "A−" on an A+ to F scale.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:41" href="#fn:41">41</a>
<a href="/facts/Roger_Ebert/ogYo6zQj">Roger Ebert</a> of the <a href="/facts/Chicago_Sun-Times/Agovkgwy">Chicago Sun-Times</a> gave the film four out of four stars, calling it "one of the best police movies in recent years, a virtuoso fusion of performances and often startling action",<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:42" href="#fn:42">42</a> and went on to name the film the fourth best of 2012.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:43" href="#fn:43">43</a> Film critic <a href="/facts/James_Berardinelli/Xkl4TTdD">James Berardinelli</a> described End of Watch as "satisfying and emotionally potent ... a good, gritty drama of the sort that seems increasingly rare within the thriller genre", giving the film 3.5 out of 4 stars.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:44" href="#fn:44">44</a> Olly Richards, writing for <a href="/facts/Empire_(magazine)/KhGMQFVh">Empire</a>, gave the film four out of five stars and summarized it as "a collection of cop-movie clichés but presented with sufficient flair and strong performances that the ride is enough, even if it's on rails".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:45" href="#fn:45">45</a> While <a href="/facts/New_York_(magazine)/aU1yeUCA">New York</a>'s <a href="/facts/Bilge_Ebiri/DGXKjP8s">Bilge Ebiri</a> found the film largely unrealistic and Ayer's direction "serviceable at best", he wrote that "Ayer and his cast appear to have so convincingly nailed the way these characters talk and act that you might not even notice the film slipping from workaday grit into out-and-out myth."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:46" href="#fn:46">46</a>
Critics praised End of Watch for its avoidance of clichés often used in police films, particularly the <a href="/facts/Buddy_cop_film/D4SKJU3M">buddy cop genre</a>. Peter Debruge of <a href="/facts/Variety_(magazine)/38rXIaaG">Variety</a> wrote that "Like a knife in the eye, End of Watch cuts past the cliches of standard police procedurals" and praised Ayer for depicting the LAPD as "an honorable and efficient organization of people working together".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:47" href="#fn:47">47</a> <a href="/facts/Entertainment_Weekly/BhADudJx">Entertainment Weekly</a>'s <a href="/facts/Lisa_Schwarzbaum/qezB6Pqu">Lisa Schwarzbaum</a>, who gave the film an A−, described it as "one of the best American cop movies I've seen in a long time [and] also one of the few I've seen that pay serious attention to what cop life feels like, both on and off duty".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:48" href="#fn:48">48</a> In a review for <a href="/facts/The_Globe_and_Mail/kMbbpJ8z">The Globe and Mail</a>, however, Rick Groen opined that the focus on "saintly" police officers was less interesting than Ayer's "trademark grit and authenticity".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:49" href="#fn:49">49</a>
The performances of Peña and Gyllenhaal were also praised by critics. Peter Debruge commended the realism that the two actors brought to their roles, saying, "Gyllenhaal and Peña so completely reinvent themselves in-character. Instead of wearing the roles like costumes or uniforms, they let the job seep into their skin."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:50" href="#fn:50">50</a> The <a href="/facts/Los_Angeles_Times/jFHbcmb9">Los Angeles Times</a>'s Betsy Sharkey applauded the chemistry between the two lead actors, as well as their individual performances, writing, "As good as Gyllenhaal is in this, Peña nearly steals the show."<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:51" href="#fn:51">51</a> In a review for <a href="/facts/USA_Today/mMa7JSPN">USA Today</a>, Claudia Puig commended Gyllenhaal for "giv[ing] his best performance since <a href="/facts/Brokeback_Mountain/9qNQvsVq">Brokeback Mountain</a>" and Peña for "shin[ing] with charisma".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:52" href="#fn:52">52</a> Roger Ebert highlighted End of Watch as "one of the performances of [Peña's] career" and praised the performances given by the supporting cast, including <a href="/facts/Natalie_Martinez/IparFfyI">Natalie Martinez</a> and <a href="/facts/Anna_Kendrick/AgkCxQGV">Anna Kendrick</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:53" href="#fn:53">53</a>
An aspect of the film criticized in numerous reviews was its handheld camerawork and cinematography. Richard Corliss wrote for <a href="/facts/Time_(magazine)/N4FXc99l">Time</a> that the <a href="/facts/Found_footage_(film_technique)/zdyCzK35">found footage</a> style of cinematography "borders on the ludicrous" and that "the tactic fatally substitutes photo realism for fauxto realism".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:54" href="#fn:54">54</a> Similarly, <a href="/facts/The_Washington_Post/dRvzvqJc">The Washington Post</a>'s Michael O'Sullivan found the aesthetic gimmicky, overused, and "an unnecessary distraction from the story".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:55" href="#fn:55">55</a> On the other hand, Amy Biancolli of the <a href="/facts/San_Francisco_Chronicle/HV7h1xrr">San Francisco Chronicle</a> felt that although the cinematography was inconsistent, "it's used to deepen its main characters" and "lends the film a lively intimacy".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:56" href="#fn:56">56</a>
Other reviewers criticized the casting of <a href="/facts/Minority_group/MWYJ3rG1">minorities</a> as gang members. <a href="/facts/Manohla_Dargis/4GHegvz6">Manohla Dargis</a> of <a href="/facts/The_New_York_Times/T9marWVX">The New York Times</a> pointed out that "almost all of [the crimes are] committed by the black and mainly brown people",<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:57" href="#fn:57">57</a> while The Globe and Mail's Rick Groen criticized "the script's penchant for over demonizing the ghetto's black residents".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:58" href="#fn:58">58</a>
