Rebecca Onion Slate Jul 1
The apartment scene is a horror show, borderline snuff, a bloody home invasion mixed with a smug lecture on politics. Go to Full Review

1/5
Citizen Vigilante perhaps wants to be Michael Winner’s Death Wish or Don Siegel’s Dirty Harry or even Scorsese’s Taxi Driver. But these were films with, variously, measures of passion, style, wit, purpose, vision and competent production values. Go to Full Review
Todd Gilchrist Variety Jun 19
The film is so astonishingly bad, it almost feels like writer-director-producer Uwe Boll is deliberately sabotaging his star Armie Hammer, whose intended comeback can only be harmed by this project. Go to Full Review
Tom Cassidy Common Sense Media Jul 17
1/5
Without the backing of a powerful and controversial media owner, this anti-migrant, pro-violence vigilante film would probably have disappeared without a trace. Go to Full Review
Armond White National Review Jul 15
Citizen Vigilante provokes discussion that leftist Hollywood media suppress. Go to Full Review
Stephen Silver The SS Ben Hecht Jul 10
Yes, it’s embarrassing crap, and yes, the only thing worse than its fascist political orientation is the totally incompetent filmmaking. Go to Full Review

Sarmad A @RT46988264 3d I just watched (Citizen Vigilante) mainly because I liked Armie Hammer's performance in (The Man From U.N.C.L.E.). I was however very disappointed, The movie feels less like a movie and more like outrage bait. Instead of exploring a complex issue, it paints immigrants with a broad brush and leans heavily into fear and division. The directing prioritizes pushing a message over telling a believable story, and the performances suffer because of it. It comes across as propaganda rather than thoughtful filmmaking, leaving little room for nuance or genuine discussion.

It’s just a long sightseeing video with nothing but driving and walking scenes. Apart from one or two moments where the culprits are punished, the entire film feels like hate propaganda, which fails to keep the attention of the viewers in the screen. There are many occasions where it feels why would Armie Hammer wasted in such a script. What was the director trying to accomplish? Fhere are no character development other than saying he likes to solve things by force. See more Patrick P @RT13954372 4d A movie working with a low budget. But has captivated how a lot of people feel. It highlights an extremely difficult issue that Europe is facing. And can perhaps serve as a cautionary tale, as to the road Europe is heading down, if the massive problems the continent and the union is facing, isnt handled. It speaks to a european people that has been silenced, that arent allowed to talk about the massive issues the european people is facing. There is nohing political about this movie, nor does it target muslims in an unfair way. It merely portrays a reality that Europe is facing. See more 1z2y3x4w5 T @RT79658260 4d Definitely a controversial political topic this day and age, and one NO ONE ever seems to want to touch with a 10ft pole! That much I appreciate, but the long drawn out scenes flashing back and forth, as well as the end were annoying. The plot, directing, lines, and acting were all alright enough to watch the STORY, which is what's important! See more Read all reviews
