Critics consensus

“Overwrought, thinly written, and all-around unpleasant, Eye for an Eye crudely exploits every parent's nightmare with deeply offensive results.”

Any pretence of thoughtful debate has long since been abandoned.

RTChicago ReaderAug 4, 2009

[A] really awful, hysterical thriller.

Rita Kempley

RTWashington PostAug 4, 2009

This blatant button-pusher plays upon our most primal emotions as well as the increasing disdain for the criminal justice system.

RTCommon Sense MediaMar 19, 2025

This bizarre and empty-headed revenge fantasy was a critical bomb and commercial flop on its release in 1996 and the following decades have not done it any favors.
