Product Description Karen mccann is a happily married mother of two with a satistying job and good friends. Suddenly however her safe ordered existence is shattered when a stranger enters her home murders her daughter and despite overwhelming evidence is set free on a legal technicality. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 05/17/2005 Starring: Ed Harris Beverly Dangelo Run time: 102 minutes Rating: R Director: John Schlesinger
Amazon.com Sally Field stars in this well-crafted revenge thriller. Eye for an Eye follows Karen McCann (Field) after her teenage daughter is raped and murdered. At first, she sinks into depression and paranoia; but, when the killer (Kiefer Sutherland) is caught, then released on a technicality, she becomes obsessed and begins to track him in his neighborhood. Her single-mindedness begins to distance her from her husband (Ed Harris). Finally, when the killer threatens her younger daughter, she decides to take matters into her own hands. Eye for an Eye is not exactly a balanced examination of justice and revenge--Sutherland's killer is a relentless monster--but it does approach the conflict from many points of view, articulated by a superb supporting cast, including Joe Mantegna, Beverly D'Angelo, Charlayne Woodard, Philip Baker Hall, Keith David, and Donal Logue. It's directed with professional skill by John Schlesinger (Midnight Cowboy, Marathon Man). --Bret Fetzer

dvd October 14, 2008 this is a pretty good movie. Sally Fields has done it again. i was very pleased with the movie.
Good movie (if you love watching LMN movies) June 22, 2008 I got this for my mother. And she loves it. Even though I don't. Go to imdb.com if you want a full review. Because I could care less to watch this type of movie.

This is a decent thriller about revenge. Sally Fields is a good actress and she carries the movie as the others are support roles. Ed Harris does a good job as her husband and Keifer Sutherland is better than average as the sleezeball we hate in this movie. When Fields characters daughter is raped and killed it is the famous overly used case of injustice with the killer set free. Gee we haven't seen than more than a hundred times on TV and in movies. Well anyway she decides to get justice on her terms and when a support group for families suffering from violence turns up a couple others looking for vigilantes, she starts the preparation. Pretty much predictable throughout. I enjoyed it nonetheless, but I have seen so many of this type I didn't find it above average. Worth a rental, but I wouldn't purchase it. If you did enjoy it be sure catch the numerous Bronson "Death Wish" movies, and many other movies on vigilante justice.
This was so awful, it made Ishtar look like Oscar material. May 3, 2007 0 out of 5 found this review helpful
I mean honestly, it amazes me that I live and breath the same air as these reviewers who give movies like these four and five stars, and then boost it up with their elaborate metaphors and cinematic wonderment of how the art form of this movie was so ravishing in its appeal to audiences who will find the on screen chemistry between Sally Field and Keifer electrifying....................HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA.
There is no use candy coating anything movie goers. Simply stated, this movie is so awful, when my friends and I, around 5 of us, all very much into cinema, and the art of, and the making of, got about 45 minutes into it, we all looked at each other as if we were watching a first years at NYU's project. (and even those are noteworthy!)
Horrendous. Appalling. Should not even made it to DVD. Here's metal more attractive.
