Critic Reviews

  • Kyle Smith, New York Post

    Dreadfully paced, with the shoddy acting of everyone but Biehn magnified to punishing degrees in talky, lengthy, predictable scenes.

  • Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times

    Labeling a film grind house doesn't excuse soap-opera emoting and laughable dialogue.

  • Joe Neumaier, New York Daily News

    This is the kind of junky, hard-to-watch thriller that apologists claim is part of a long line of tough, grindhouse-style thrillers, but which is actually just amateurish gristle.

  • Nick Pinkerton, Village Voice

    It is dreary to envisage the viewer who could become emotionally involved in The Victim ...

  • Brent Simon, Shockya.com

    Extra helpings of off-kilter and off-key melodrama sink Michael Biehn's bewildering directorial debut, the nasty little down-and-dirty thriller The Victim.
