The apartment scene is a horror show, borderline snuff, a bloody home invasion mixed with a smug lecture on politics.

Citizen Vigilante perhaps wants to be Michael Winner’s Death Wish or Don Siegel’s Dirty Harry or even Scorsese’s Taxi Driver. But these were films with, variously, measures of passion, style, wit, purpose, vision and competent production values.

The film is so astonishingly bad, it almost feels like writer-director-producer Uwe Boll is deliberately sabotaging his star Armie Hammer, whose intended comeback can only be harmed by this project.

A gross, unnecessary, nightmare of a film.
