Critic Reviews of "Straw Dogs (2011)"
Globe and MailSeptember 23, 2011A routine, if rather gruesome thriller with attractive leads ducking in and out of danger.
ReelViewsSeptember 18, 2011Lurie, like Peckinpah, is fascinated by the idea that the seemingly mild, non-confrontational pacifist may be the villain in all of this.
Film.comSeptember 16, 2011Everything here plays out to the same beats and yet ultimately results in conventional revenge-minded catharsis rather than queasy ambivalence.
New York Daily NewsSeptember 16, 2011While Lurie could have gone lighter on the symbolism, he ratchets up the tension with deft intelligence. He's not just making a thriller but a horror film, and we feel his own fear in every scene.
New York PostSeptember 16, 2011One of those movies that sits in an armchair, smokes a pipe and reflects "seriously" on "the question of violence," but the main reason to see it is for the hilariously nasty uses it devises for a bear trap, nail gun, etc.
Washington PostSeptember 16, 2011Lurie's smart enough to know that we're supposed to be disturbed -- and not titillated -- by the savagery the movie depicts.
Georgia StraightFebruary 15, 2013On the bright side, it's probably the only movie ever made to boast kickass tunes by the southern-rock triumvirate of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Molly Hatchet, and Blackfoot.
ScreenRantOctober 02, 2012Straw Dogs does little more than rely on graphic violence as well as outdated stereotypes to keep the tension high.
We Got This CoveredSeptember 22, 2012The best that can be said about Straw Dogs is that it's watchable: and that's due to Alexander Skarsgard's stellar abs.
TheMovieReport.comApril 06, 2012Comes off like its poster: a copycat that superficially looks the same but lacks in inspiration.
IGN DVDJanuary 29, 2012There's nothing profound or mysterious about Straw Dogs. The performances are solid, but the movie is mostly forgettable.
