I Spit on Your Grave Reviews
Any semblance of moral justification in this film falls completely flat.
| Original Score: 0/4.0 | Sep 11, 2020
Controversial, horrific, I Spit On Your Grave is one of the few films that is actually better than the original and challenges you to look within yourself.

While I Spit on Your Grave is very aware of how men relate to each other, however, it has virtually nothing to say about how women interact. Its vision of female and, indeed, feminist empowerment, is entirely individual.

The cartoon violence on display here completely removes all sense of realism, shoving the film into torture porn territory.

I advise you avoid the film like the plague.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 6, 2018
Although it would be interesting to see a stunt like this get pulled off in real life, I Spit on Your Grave needs major plot fixes and a redo.
| Original Score: D | Sep 9, 2017
It's intentionally, efficiently ugly, through and through.

This remake exists in that movie's shadow and, instead of attempting to outshock the original, ups the elaborate revenge aspect and gives you something to shamelessly cheer for.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 4, 2011
Nada mais é do que uma narrativa repleta de misoginia, preconceito e estupidez.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 12, 2011
It's not that they don't deserve punishment, but the scale here is so out-of-whack with what we're shown, with one battered, tiny girl devising and executing tortures that would have required several construction crews and a team of black ops agents.

Pretty much across the board the characters are more interesting in the remake, but that's really only because they actually are characters to some degree, as opposed to the caricatures presented in the '78 version.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 12, 2011
If you look at it the right way, I Spit on Your Grave is powerful stuff, much better to be faced and discussed than dismissed and ignored.
| Feb 11, 2011
As dubious as the original, though easier to watch in several ways.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Feb 10, 2011
Mostly well made, with solid performances, but there's very little that's fresh or original about this remake.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Feb 5, 2011
Gory and violent without really hitting home in either a visceral or meaningful way, and there are chunks that are actually quite dull.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 1, 2011
It's better made, more plausible than the original, the sexual violations less drawn out, the vengeance more violent and elaborate.

Doesn't appear to set out to eroticise rape, but equally doesn't care if eroticising rape is a by-product of its aim to provoke an emotive reaction - any reaction - in viewers
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 21, 2011
The sexual violence caused the British Board Of Film Classification to demand 43 seconds of cuts. A shame they didn't cut the rest.
| Jan 21, 2011
As rape-and-revenge movies (and, indeed horror remakes) go, this is actually pretty good, thanks to strong performances, a decent script and some inventively nasty death sequences.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 21, 2011
Audiences who like the spectacle of men being tortured and women being raped may well be the same audiences. For them, this film offers a two-for-one deal.
