In the course of watching Do Revenge, I was reminded of The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror XX (a parody of Dial M for Murder) and Cruel Intentions (the casting of Sarah Michelle Gellar had a lot to do with that). The genre box lists comedy, but I personally didn't find the film entertaining, humorous, or funny – and the crossed revenge theme was reprehensibly underused and tediously handled. I also had a problem with the cast, which, apart from the aforementioned Gellar, I found universally unlikeable. Maya Hawke didn't impress me either. Apart from the weak script, the film is harmed by its excessive running time – ninety minutes would have been enough. All in all, a better two stars!
