Dead Man's Shoes Ratings & Reviews
Variety
Derek Elley
Film plays as a quirky Brit riff on everything from U.S. slasher pics to revenge oaters but without Meadows' usual psychological complexity.
Oregonian
Shawn Levy
Though Meadows makes a lot of it, he mucks it up before it's over.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
In a swift 86 minutes, director Meadows and co-writer/star Considine give us a methodical, handsome, emotionally intelligent version of the revenge flick.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Jeff Vice
The whole thing leaves a bad taste in your mouth.
Bullz-Eye.com
Despite the fact that there is little left to the imagination, the movie is enthralling.
Murphy's Movie Reviews
Ted Murphy
What makes it intriguing and eminently watchable is Considine's deft almost low-key portrayal of what is essentially an avenging angel.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
In the end, the picture's more pulp than juice.
Chicago Tribune
Jessica Reaves
There's a hint of Shakespeare's goriest tragedies here, sucked dry of any attendant heart, emotional depth or compelling human interest.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
For better or worse, this is a revenge saga that refuses to take sides.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
Though the story is formulaic, the bleakly naturalistic performances give it an uncomfortable sting.
Reel.com
Timothy Knight
Unfortunately, the absence of emotionally engaging characters, combined with the cast's thick, unintelligible accents, undermines what could have been a taut and provocative exploration on the moral price of vengeance.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
Meadows ... very slowly builds to a powerful climax for this arty cross between Straw Dogs and First Blood.
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
Like Park Chan-wook's Vengeance trilogy, it explores the nature of the beast of revenge, leaving the audience in a sweat of dread.
Boxoffice Magazine
Wade Major
Pugnacious, poetic and compellingly raw, it's a simple but unforgettable look at the roots and costs of frontier justice at a time when frontiers no longer exist except in the hearts and minds of men.
AV Club
Noel Murray
Meadows [makes] a stringy pulp premise into something personal and passionate which builds from relaxed comedy into existential dread...
New York Times
Laura Kern
Despite some hints at conscience and humanity, Dead Man's Shoes is a typical slasher film at the core.
Observer
Rex Reed
Dead Man's Shoes is for the true connoisseur: a tight, well-made, evocative piece of filmmaking that recalls the extreme emotions in some of Sam Peckinpah's genre-benders about retribution and vigilante justice.
Village Voice
Luke Y. Thompson
Dead Man's Shoes is all about revenge, but in trying to be one of those serious revenge films that questions violence while indulging in it, it manages to keep virtually all the characters unsympathetic and uninteresting.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
Considine hawks a striking cipher, an avenging angel whose metaphysical communion with otherworldly energies is echoed in the film's unhinged, stewy surface.
The Hollywood Reporter
Ray Bennett
The film is filled with deeply unpleasant and stupid people whose vapid speech is largely incomprehensible due to thick regional accents.
