If Eye for an Eye were just another dumb thriller about killing a bad guy, it would not be so irritating. But by raising the moral issue, it is more like a dumb TV movie proposing a vigilantelite brand of violent retribution. Full Review

[A] really awful, hysterical thriller. Full Review

The characterisation is so thin, and the plotting so crude, it's only the violence which sets this apart from the banalities of TV fare. Full Review

Although it poses the interesting moral dilemma behind taking the law into your own hands, Schlesinger's film borders on the distasteful in its portrayal of rape and murder. Full Review

Rating: 1/5 -- Never in his varied career has Mr. Schlesinger made a film as mean-spirited and empty as this.

A high concept plot, a hot-button social issue....Sally Field toplines to good effect....Woodard is a standout...

Product Description:

Karen McCann's (Sally Field) world is torn apart while driving home one day when she receives a call on her cell phone from her daughter--who is being raped and murdered as she speaks. The murderer--smirking, animalistic Robert Doob (Kiefer Sutherland)--is arrested, but is then released on a technicality. Seeking an outlet for her anger and despair, Karen joins a support group--and then a vigilante organization--becoming increasingly obsessed with bringing her daughter's killer to justice and gaining vengeance at whatever cost. Directed by John Schlesinger (MIDNIGHT COWBOY) and based on the novel by Erika Holzer.
