Revenge movie from the nineties.

Nothing beats a good revenge movie, it's a thing people like to watch, making your own justice when all the legal options failed. Fantasizing about what we would do if we were the victim of injustice. For a vigilante movie Eye For An Eye is entertaining but it's not the best in the genre. For that there are too much inconsistencies and is the bad guy (played by Kiefer Sutherland) probably the dumbest vilain ever seen. But it's worth a watch, there is some suspense, we get some justice served, and that's why we watch movies like this one. It was probably better in the nineties but since then there are better movies made in this genre.

The 'Flying Nun' Goes 'Death Wish'

Before the hit television show "24," Keifer Sutherland played mostly despicable, evil characters. That's what he does in this film, as "Robert Doob," a low-life who rapes and kills Sally Field's daughter and then is unfairly released by the courts. Sally, playing "Karen McCann," goes after justice.Almost everyone loves a revenge story and that, of course, is what this movie is, pure and simple: kind of a female "Death Wish."As for the characters, Sutherland is "over the top" with his guy - way, way past despicable, so ridiculously bad and evil you might even laugh.For those who picture Sally Field as "The Flying Nun," this movie will be a shock. She is anything but the sweet, wholesome-looking girl she appeared to be in so many of her films when she was younger.....or even the new TV commercials of today. Even though she has shown she can be very foul- mouthed ('m talking 'real life'), somehow seeing her portrayed here as a vigilante, doesn't ring up. Charles Bronson, yes; Sally Field, uh.....no.Be warned: this is a tough movie in spots, especially in the beginning. It is very similar to the opening in "Death Wish," and is not for the squeamish.This isn't a bad movie. It is extremely manipulative and has a bunch of plot holes, but if you love revenge films and don't care about particularly intelligent scripts (although the mad-as-hell mom isn't stupid in here), you can just add this one to your library. It serves its purpose of entertaining.
