It's much ado about mutton.

rotten:
While it's got a refreshingly dry, nasty tone, the film is never quite as funny as it needs to be.

fresh:
You might not want to dine with this group, especially if they brought the meat. But it's OK to play with the knives a little.
– Michael Booth,

fresh:
Gruesome as it may sound, Butchers is a likeable, well-made film and a genuine comedy.

The subject is so grim you may find that you've forgotten to laugh.
