Punishment Park Ratings & Reviews
Vague Visages
Q.V. Hough
While certain aspects of Punishment Park may seem hilarious today, the film was undoubtedly frightening upon first release...
New York Magazine/Vulture
Judith Crist
The most offensive of the recent Festival films I have seen to date.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
Shot during the post-Kent State "law and order" election of 1970, Punishment Park can seem so outrageous as to verge on camp, but few other movies capture so painfully the rhetoric and desperation of the times.
Film Threat
Phil Hall
A wooly curio.
Filmcritic.com
Chris Barsanti
a troubling document from a time when the country seemed about to tip into chaos
Slant Magazine
Jeremiah Kipp
Punishment Park is told in the pseudo-documentary style that defines most of the obscure body of work by British filmmaker Peter Watkins.
Not Coming to a Theater Near You
Leo Goldsmith
The film is as widely applicable to our own factious state of the union as it was to that of America in the 1970s.

Shane Burridge
Watkins' convincing cinema-verite style contradicts what we know is an historical untruth
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It is a polemic exercise between the Left and the Right, with no room for the middle point of view.
