Leave your thoughts about Legend of the Fist: The Return of Chen Zhen.
| Film Journal InternationalDaniel EaganA film with more ambition than coherence. |
| AV ClubNoel MurrayIt's just too bad that Legend Of The Fist breaks up that action with long scenes of well-dressed men and women sitting around in nightclubs, talking politics. |
| JoBlo's Movie EmporiumChris BumbrayIncredible action setpieces more than make up for the slow gaps. |
| OregonianShawn LevyThis isn't at the same level of quality as Yen's "Ip Man 2," which played earlier this year and was one of the best martial arts movies in a long time. But it is entertaining, even if it does ask you to suspend boatloads of disbelief. |
| Village VoiceNick PinkertonAnyone who's seen a martial-arts picture expects a certain amount of thumb-twiddling between the big numbers, but director Andrew Lau's handling of exposition is markedly poor, distended with rubbish plotlines, flashy sadism, and overwrought jingo. |
| Parallax ViewSean Axmaker... a colorful and largely incoherent mess, less a movie than a collection of cannibalized ideas stitched together into something resembling a plot. |
| Boston PhoenixPeter KeoughFight sequences and jingoism propel Andrew Lau's period martial-arts melodrama, a formula that can be irresistible despite one's better judgment. |
| NYC Film CriticEthan AlterToo bad the film surrounding the fight scenes is there to be tolerated rather than fully enjoyed. |
| Slant MagazineRob HumanickThe film remains most engaging when it dispatches with narrative excess and focuses on the beautifully orchestrated mayhem. |
| HitFixDrew McWeenyThe first ten minutes of the film are basically just Chen Zhen single-handedly defeating the Germans and winning the war, and it's so jaw-droppingly good that it almost makes the rest of the movie feel like a let-down. |
