There are no winners here, only losers, and by the end, everyone has lost far too much.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 12, 2021

Marc Silver's tautly edited film, as well as being a compelling real-life courtroom drama, offers some clarity about race and injustice in the pre-Trump era.

| Original Score: B-plus | Apr 13, 2021

The film finds its biggest strengths in the quiet moments with Davis's parents as they attempt to move through the grief of losing their only child.

| Jan 28, 2021

The nature of the injustice and the psychologies of his subjects are more than interesting enough to carry us through a full-length feature, and in recognizing that, he shows restraint.

| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Mar 13, 2019

The courtroom drama of 3 1/2 Minutes is as compelling as that of any narrative film.

| Mar 7, 2019

HBO's new documentary reminds us how deadly threat perception is for black people.

| Apr 16, 2018

While "Justice for Jordan" may have been served, the words - and Davis' story - are yet another reminder of a nation that remains fractured by inequality, desperately in need of change.

| Original Score: A- | Oct 28, 2017

While the documentary itself merely gives the audience a bird's eye view of the courtroom narrative, it punctuates the point that is too often forgotten in these cases: It is Dunn who is on trial here, not Davis.

| Original Score: B+ | Sep 1, 2017

Cleanly presented and crisply framed, each image is shot with a respectfully detached gaze, from the talking heads to the twisting Floridian highways shot at golden hour. Sadly, this means that Silver's treatment of the case feels overly forensic.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 1, 2017

We must not just simply remember, we must stand up and demand our humanity. If we don't, we've let Jordan Davis down and after seeing, 3 1/2 Minutes, 10 Bullets that is the last thing that you will want to do.

| Apr 12, 2017

What the documentary the filmmakers have assembled is educational, eye opening, often emotional, sad and galvanizing.

| Mar 7, 2017

3 And 1/2 Minutes, 10 Bullets is a highly emotional documentary, one that clearly needed to be made.

| Dec 7, 2016

A sickeningly potent case study... But it's also a tense, engaging piece of narrative.

| Original Score: 9/10 | Jul 10, 2016

Ultimately, Silver's film does not offer fresh insight into the racial murder of Jordan Davis by Michael Dunn that has not been previously analysed by other media sources.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 12, 2016

The tragedy at its narrative core makes for thoroughly engrossing viewing, although the film lacks the propulsive thrust that could have made it a more vital work of filmmaking.

| Original Score: B- | Jan 20, 2016

This is an effective film, but as a documentary, I was troubled by some important facts that it left out.

| Original Score: B | Jan 12, 2016

Though the courtroom scenes resonate, the film frustrates due to sidestepping explorations of Dunn, his fiancee and Florida's Stand Your Ground law.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Nov 23, 2015

A compelling courtroom documentary.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 5, 2015

Offering a balanced but impassioned account of the case, Silver, director of 2013's Who Is Dayani Cristal?, puts the viewer in the position of the jury ...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 4, 2015

An excruciatingly challenging and disquieting watch, that will move and compel you in equal measure.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 2, 2015
