It’s basic action entertainment of a somewhat old-fashioned ilk, giving viewers exactly what they expect in a borderline-hokey yet satisfying way. Read full review

John DeFore

The film's apparent desire to channel heartland morality is weirdly undercut by a glib (and unsatisfying) vigilante move at the end, but only the least critical viewers will make it far enough into the pic to add moral confusion to their list of complaints. Read full review

While Pearce is typically superb as the hero — a self-doubting U.S. marshal named Jim Dillon — the film itself is otherwise utterly unremarkable. The combination of stiff, overwritten dialogue and flatly functional action sequences wastes a good lead performance. Read full review

Caught between worlds, Disturbing the Peace isn’t as fun as it begs to be or as eloquent as it’s trying to be. Read full review

Jan 17, 2020

A dull-as-dishwater, paint-by-numbers cinematic hiccup with no discernible reason for being. Read full review

With a lackluster script, shaky supporting characters, and weightless dialogue, Disturbing the Peace is the rare film that feels void of purpose or direction. Read full review

Guy Pearce is another actor who ended up like Nicolas Cage, Bruce Willis, John Travolta, and John Cusack. Scraping the bottom of the barrel to find work.
Completely respectable, but his movies suck.
