Aaron C Could of been great Just seemed silly Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/21/25 Full Review thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/24/25 Full Review Charles P Save yourself some tedium and just re-watch Death Wish, an earlier and arguably more realistic take on street vigilantism after trauma. Even Jodie Foster manages to look bored in many scenes, and as for the electrifying performance others rave about - I don't see them in this movie. YMMV. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/12/25 Full Review Gregory S Wow, it has one of the uncomfortable, realistic, and gritty opening acts I have every seen. Everything about it was pure horror. Jody Foster is absolutely brilliant. It takes quite a bit from Death Wish, but with a female lead. Love when the main character get well deserved revenge. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/30/25 Full Review Jithin K I didn't even realize this was inspired by Deathwish until after watching the movie and reading reviews. And honestly, this is way, way better than what Deathwish set out to be. There is real emotional depth here, and a clear moral ambiguity that takes both sides. Towards the end, it kind of loses it, but it was still trying. There were definitely issues with this movie, with a lot of its stereotypes and the aspects trying to show that there is no prejudice, not feeling very genuine. But it's still in the framework of a personal tragedy and not exactly a representation of what the place is. Neil Jordan's style really hooked me with the visuals, music, pacing, etc, but it also kind of made me feel like this was a 90s movie. If there were not so much use of cellphones, I'd have guessed it was from the 90s. It's the first film that I've felt Terrence Howard was really great, but no doubt that Jodie Foster carried the whole movie. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/27/25 Full Review david m I had seen this film when it first came out and decided to watch it again 18 years later, and what an astonishing and wonderful surprise that was. It was done by the great director Neil Jordan, who did quite a few amazing films like Michael Collins, the Crying Game, Interview with the Vampire and the Borgias, to name just a few. Absolutely pitch perfect direction, great editing, a wonderful soundtrack and two tour de force performances by Terrence Howard and Jodie Foster. The chemistry between them was palpable, and the story was I suppose written back in the day when stories were still believable coming from Hollywood. Really outstanding. If you've never seen it do yourself a favor and watch it, and if you've seen it before do yourself a favor and watch it again, it's that good.
