ReviewsUSA Today - Even by today's standards, some scenes are jaw-dropping in their bloodshed. To that end, Lurie accomplishes some of what Peckinpah evoked 40 years ago., Miami Herald - Straw Dogs is an artful provocation - a meditation on masculinity and societal mores in the guise of an explosive thriller., Rolling Stone - Peckinpah rubbed our noses in the bloodlust. Lurie invites objectivity. He gets strong, complex performances from actors who won't be painted into corners.
