Everything here plays out to the same beats and yet ultimately results in conventional revenge-minded catharsis rather than queasy ambivalence.

Comes off like its poster: a copycat that superficially looks the same but lacks in inspiration.

On 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.

Lurie, like Peckinpah, is fascinated by the idea that the seemingly mild, non-confrontational pacifist may be the villain in all of this.

In the history of remakes, this really isn't a bad one...

Lurie's smart enough to know that we're supposed to be disturbed -- and not titillated -- by the savagery the movie depicts.

The best that can be said about Straw Dogs is that it's watchable: and that's due to Alexander Skarsgard's stellar abs.

While 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.

One 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.

There's nothing profound or mysterious about Straw Dogs. The performances are solid, but the movie is mostly forgettable.

Straw Dogs does little more than rely on graphic violence as well as outdated stereotypes to keep the tension high.

Globe and Mail

A routine, if rather gruesome thriller with attractive leads ducking in and out of danger.
