Critic Reviews of "Straw Dogs"
Chicago Sun-TimesOctober 23, 2004The most offensive thing about the movie is its hypocrisy; it is totally committed to the pornography of violence, but lays on the moral outrage with a shovel.
Hollywood ReporterAugust 05, 2003Upon first viewing, it seems like a straightforward film, but the more one watches it, the more tension one sees in the relationship between the couple.
New York TimesMay 20, 2003Mr. Peckinpah has made some good films (Ride the High Country) and a couple of great films (The Wild Bunch, The Ballad of Cable Hogue) -- which may be why Straw Dogs is a special disappointment.
Salon.comDecember 19, 2001Eyes Wide Shut -- and the cooked-up debates surrounding it -- are only about sex in the head. Peckinpah gives you sex as a kick in the groin, a jolt to the brain and a shot to the heart.
Movie MetropolisDecember 29, 2011A taut drama with great performances and a recipe for action and tension that modern-day thrillers could learn from.
Arkansas Democrat-GazetteOctober 01, 2011But what if the mask of your neighbor tilts for a second and you catch a glimpse of the riot going on behind his face? What if you accidentally see the monster feasting on his prey? Now what if you're looking in the mirror?
Paste MagazineSeptember 24, 2011It ends up hackneyed, unnecessary, and clichéd, improved only by the A-list acting talent and slickness of the production values.
EmanuelLevy.ComJuly 28, 2009Anchored by Dustin Hoffman's seminal performance, Peckinpah's second masterpiece (after The Wild Bunch) is still one of the most provocative, controversial, and ambiguous explorations of actual violence and our reaction to screen violence.
Cinema em CenaApril 01, 2007Um assustador estudo sobre o animal interior do Homem que, mesmo moralista, conservador e misógino, impressiona por sua complexidade.
TV GuideAugust 30, 2006One of Sam Peckinpah's finest films, a relentless study in violence and machismo that is shocking, not only for its explicit gore, but for the degree to which it manipulates 'civilized' audiences.
