Reverse Missiles attaches a "Return to Sender" to missiles. The only reason dodging bullets doesn't really work is that you can't actually see a bullet in flight. Arrows, knives, and wrenches are all visible in flight, so you can dodge those. The rules for dodging bullets even point out that you're really just trying to not be in line with the barrel of the gun when somebody pulls the trigger.
