Movie Reviews

Cleveland Press - 7/10 by Tony MastroianniThe ultra-sophisticate may find the broad melodramatic flourishes and the heroics unacceptable, but this isn't a film for the ultra-sophisticate.
Monthly Film Bulletin - 6/10 by MFB CriticsResourcefully directed and inventively scripted, The Face of Fu Manchu is a first-class thriller, weakened only by some rather summary characterisation, and a grandiose but flurried ending.
User Review - 10/10 by Richard YWhy am I giving this mediocre evil-ish pic 5 stars? Simple, two of my brothers and my sister are in it as extras (but clearly visible on screen) when it was filmed in Ireland.
User Review - 8/10 by John DA fine of example of 1960s British action pictures, The Face of Fu Manchu wouldn't be out of place as a second feature to any of the early Bond films.
User Review - 8/10 by Darren HBased on the character originally envisioned by British author Sax Rohmer, Christopher Lee made a total of five appearances in the 1960s as arch villain Fu Manchu. This entry (the first in the series) is by far the best, closely followed by the second `Brides of Fu Manchu.' What makes this entry so enjoyable is the wonderful Nigel Green as Fu Manchu's greatest nemesis - Nayland Smith of Scotland Yard. In fact it is in the opening minutes of this movie that we see Smith invited by the Chinese government to witness the execution of Fu Manchu. Fast forward a couple of months and Smith is sturdy in his belief that Fu Manchu survived and is behind a series of grisly crimes in western Europe. Then when a professors servant is found murdered in the same manner in which Fu Manchu's followers had practiced, Smith becomes even more convinced that he is up against the evil genius. Through a series of machinations Smith learns that the professor has been kidnapped by Fu Manchu and is being forced to make a toxin that could wipe out most of the western world. Of course (in a plot device also used in the following `Brides of Fu Manchu') the professors daughter has also been captured and is being used to comply the professor to complete his task. Directed with skill by Don Sharp this movie is fast-paced enough to overlook the plot holes and colorful enough to keep the fun factor umpped up to the ultimate degree. It's a visual feast and the movie is also helped by a tight script and some well drawn characters. I grew up watching these movies on British television and my memories did not disappoint me. Also notable is the inclusion of one-time Bond girl Karin (You Only Live Twice) Dor ho turns in a strong performance as the professors daughter. This is an ultimate Saturday afternoon movie to be watched relaxed in a recliner with a bag of popcorn in one hand and a soda in the other, all the while reveling in every outlandish moment.
User Review - 8/10 by mutt mSharp and Lee bring Rohmer's pulp fiend back to the big screen in this ludicrous 60s schlock. Not the yellow peril again!

User Review - 6/10 by Ted WGood Saturday morning serial stuff. I just started working my way through the Lee series and had a good time with this, but was more impressed with the sequel.
User Review - 6/10 by Private UThis would have been good if 95% of the chinese were actually played by orientals and not just white people with a tan (tho they just didn't do that sort of casting much in those days!). Even Christopher Lee (good actor as he is) just doesn't quite pull it off. A shame as it could have been so much more. (Yet another movie I had to request added to flixter!)
