Reception
The Hollywood Reporter wrote that the despite the "reasonably effective" performances, the film is "unconvincing from start to finish, with the director relying on so many helicopter shots of the San Antonio skyline that it begins to resemble something that might have been produced by the city’s tourist bureau."[2]
Jeannette Catsoulis of The New York Times wrote that the film is "stuffed with men who think only with their fists, feet and parts in between."[3]
Scott Foundas of Variety wrote that while the film "doesn’t lack ambition", it "lays everything on far too thick", and the performances are "mostly stiff".[1]
Gary Goldstein of the Los Angeles Times wrote that the "talented quartet of young actors can't surmount the wall-to-wall clichés that comprise “Mission Park,” an earnest, not terribly convincing action thriller as generic as its title."[4]
