Straw Dogs - Trailer - YouTube
is the link to the trailer, Moviemeter's link no longer works.
If you have never seen the film, may I advise you to go see the original version (1971 with Dustin Hoffman, among others). In terms of valuation (3.52*), it scores much higher and the whole is better. This is just a repetition of moves, even the covers of the DVDs are similar. Not very original right?

This remake has everything to make it a pretty good movie. The bullying is palpable to the bone and that's what it's all about when we talk about Straw Dogs.

The whole time I felt like , this is nice but something or something is missing . That may be true because I now read that there is also an original and this a remake. And the original is quite praised .
It can not be the game , especially Skarsgard is quite threatening .
But apart from all that, I think the story with Jeremy (purcell) actually belongs as its own whole and did not fit into the story. I wonder if that was also the case in the first version .
You actually know from moment one that there is a figurative thunderstorm in the air . And then it storms.
Best spicy final
Other than that, not very impressed.
