Rebecca Onion Slate Jul 1, 2026
The apartment scene is a horror show, borderline snuff, a bloody home invasion mixed with a smug lecture on politics. Go to Full Review

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, 2026
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

A gross, unnecessary, nightmare of a film. Go to Full Review

3/5
CITIZEN VIGILANTE is built around an uncomfortable, dramatic question: what happens when the distance between law and perceived justice becomes so great that someone decides to fill that void himself? Legality and justice are not presented as synonyms. Go to Full Review

saxon F @supahotfya 16 hrs ago The other reviews on the low budget filming and dialogue and acting are true but if they had been given a bigger budget and a better cast apart from Armie it would be one of the best movies ive seen. Its an amazing idea just poorly executed due to money simple as that. Id love to see a movie along the same lines with a bit more funding behind it perhaps a different director etc. I still think its a worth while watch if you can put aside the poor film techniques and dialogue See more @3ak.2026 1 day ago Bad movie, great idea! See more Bianca M @Mama_Bee_D 1 day ago This movie will leave you with more questions than answers, in all honesty the filmmaking was pathetic with many scenes flip flopping about. Nothing kills a movie more than the lack of dramatic music in a scene to make it impactful or the fact that a scene as simple as walking down the street was filmed for more than 2minutes from different angles but with no real significance to the plot. This movie started promising for the first 5minutes but there after it honestly faltered on ridiculous, the message would have hit better if the timeline made sense instead of going back and forth from scene to scene. Wasted 1h38min of my life, just so you don't have to sit through this mess of a film. See more Aidan S @as2425 3 days ago Citizen Vigilante (90/100) boldly highlights a broken justice system and the societal impact of unchecked mass immigration. It shows how abandoning traditional values leaves good citizens vulnerable to criminals, including those who refuse to integrate, while courts repeatedly fail the victims. While its core message about restoring right and wrong is crucial, the vigilante is deeply flawed. His anger is justified, but endangering innocent drivers and paying a sex worker prove he lacks a true moral compass. It’s a stark reminder that taking the law into your own hands without strong morals is destructive and harms innocents along the way. Technically, the film is average. Cinematography and effects are just passable, and the supporting cast is cheesy, though the lead actor carries the story well. Despite mediocre production and a highly imperfect hero, it is an important watch advocating for a return to civilized standards. See more Rian M @SoloUtilitaRian 3 days ago The movie is a insight into how fragile politics are right now. It digs into the core that many people are clearly leaning into. That core is fear of “them”. What it does really well is show how extremists on both sides. What the world needs is the middle ground. This vigilante extremism is portrayed really well by Armie Hammer and he plays the cold hearted saviour with pure efficiency. While many claim it is a film that should be banned, I see it as something to learn from. See more Luke C @RT48185980 Oct 27, 2026 Not for the faint-hearted but a refreshing change from boring Woke movies. Batman for adults. See more Read all reviews
