Movie Reviews

CNNRadio - 9/10 by Paul ChambersFans of the genre may enjoy the bizarre humor. But, the story seemed never-ending to me.
Observer (UK) - 8/10 by Philip FrenchIt's satire of sorts, but broad, confused, extremely talkative and interminable.
PopMatters - 8/10 by Chris BarsantiA genre-crossing Yojimbo-like satire ... rife with trickery, gamesmanship, and bloodshed
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Simon AbramsThe world of difference in tone and content between actor-turned-director Jiang Wen's Let the Bullets Fly and his masterful Devils on the Doorstep can be seen in the former film's deceptively happy ending.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Nick SchagerComedy and shifting-allegiances intrigue more than compensate for the dearth of rousing action in this 1920s-set film.
AV Club - 8/10 by Alison WillmoreThat dedicated wryness makes the endless twists and betrayals easier to process-these are awful people, but it's sure a lot of fun to watch them fight it out.
Cinemalogue - 8/10 by Todd JorgensonThe stylish direction of Wen Jiang helps to overcome some flaws in his convoluted screenplay.
Seattle Times - 8/10 by Soren AndersenJiang directs with great vigor, serving up plenty of blood and a lot of laughs as he turns his picture into a propulsive blast.
Chicago Reader - 8/10 by Ben SachsThis period action comedy by Jiang Wen (Devils on the Doorstep) is great fun in the Shakespearean tradition, stuffed with lively characters, dramatic stand-offs, and stolen-identity subplots.
KPBS.org - 6/10 by Beth AccomandoThe real pleasure is seeing Chow and Jiang square off. Chow mugs for the camera with the same finesse as he handles guns in Woo's films.
