Reaction: Being a period war drama without big action scenes or big names, the film was not easy to market. We were hoping the film would find an audience regardless, but that didn't happen this time around.
"The film ends up being a really odd selection of elements (war, drama, cross dressing?) that may have worked together on the page, but struggle to find a cohesiveness on the big screen." - Pearce Chayka, Daily Telegraph
"Jack Reynor shows that he is an actor on the rise with this challenging lead role. The film is a bit all over the place, but Reynor's confident portrayal grounds the story." - Mark Brown, Austin American-Statesman
"Like many of Doug Liman's films, Days Without End, is a bit of a messy film that probably shouldn't be as enjoyable as it turned out. The film briskly moves from place to place and supporting characters come and go at a rapid pace, but some strong performances and entertaining scenes tie it all together." - Henry Daniels, Vancouver Sun
Rated R for scenes of graphic war violence and some sexuality/nudity
