Rating: B- --
The movie is dramatically shapeless and pretentious too, but as director, Sean Penn gets powerful performances from his central trio: Nicholson, Anjelica Huston, and David Morse.

I came to value the clumsy moments in which Penn seemed to be groping for truth and meaning along with the characters.

4 stars out of 5 -- [I]t's a heavyweight....Morally complex and powerfully acted...
Total Film
...Penn deserves admiration for both an interest in material and an approach that lie outside the safety zone of commercial certainty...
Variety
...THE CROSSING GUARD gives us the most honourable Jack Nicholson performance this decade...

Product Description:
After a hit-and-run takes the life of a man's daughter, breaking his heart and destroying his marriage, he plots revenge on the man who did it. When the driver is released from prison six years later, the two men find themselves on a fateful collision course. Penned by Penn, in a nod to French New Waver Claude Chabrol's similarly gripping "This Man Must Die."
