[T]hough doubtlessly reactionary, Straw Dogs has the heat of personal commitment and the authority of deep (if bitter) contemplation.

Rating: 3/4 --
The questions it raises about sexual consent, masculinity, and humanity's penchant for violence are as urgent today as they were in 1971.

...Today it's as provocative as ever...
Entertainment Weekly
Eyes Wide Shut -- and the cooked-up debates surrounding it -- are only about sex in the head. Peckinpah gives you sex as a kick in the groin, a jolt to the brain and a shot to the heart.
Salon.com
The script... relies on shock and violence to tide it over weakness in development, shallow characterization and lack of motivation.

We see it. but we can't believe it. Nor can Hoffman.

Mr. Peckinpah has made some good films (Ride the High Country) and a couple of great films (The Wild Bunch, The Ballad of Cable Hogue) -- which may be why Straw Dogs is a special disappointment.
