Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Bacon, as usual, is very good even when he's slumming, and as a trashy B-movie redo of Death Wish the movie works well enough for a Saturday afternoon with a case of brewskies.

rotten:
This graphically violent film suffers from cursorily developed characters whose primary function is to advance the creaky plot.

rotten:
The morality of revenge is barely at issue in a movie that pushes the plausibility of revenge right over a cliff.

rotten:
It's terrible and it's so disappointing because I love Kevin Bacon and I love Aisha [Tyler] and you have good actors here who are trapped.

rotten:
The result is such a mish-mash of conflicting tones and ideas that it doesn't play well on any level.
