What are critics saying?

The Globe and Mail (Toronto) by Brad Wheeler

A well-layered film makes a fascinating case for forgiveness and a sharp rebuke of Bible-taught eye-for-an-eye revenge.

The Hollywood Reporter by John DeFore

As our encounters with him continue, it becomes clear that Stroman — whose early life nearly guaranteed problems ahead — evolved dramatically behind bars, and that his remorse for his crimes is sincere.

Los Angeles Times by Michael Rechtshaffen

The rehabilitative power of forgiveness is thought-provokingly explored in Ilan Ziv’s An Eye for an Eye.

San Francisco Chronicle by Mick LaSalle

An Eye for an Eye may very well be the most unpersuasive documentary ever made.
