Movie Reviews

Combustible Celluloid - 10/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonAs impressively mounted as Braveheart and Gladiator, but as directed by Hong Kong action master John Woo, it easily surpasses them in terms of style and grace, action and cinematography
Shadows on the Wall - 9/10 by Rich ClineJohn Woo applies his whizzing, sweeping visual style to Chinese history, making this film one of the most hugely entertaining battle epics in recent memory. Utterly riveting, we barely feel two and a half hours pass.
ComingSoon.net - 9/10 by Edward DouglasHard not to be impressed by the spectacular way Woo gives Western audiences an Asian history lesson that's thoroughly entertaining at the same time.
Sydney Morning Herald - 9/10 by Giles HardieLike your chinese action? The huge battles, physics defying fight sequences, the sense of history in the making? Then you'll love Red Cliff.
MovieWeb - 9/10 by Julian RomanDripping with lush detail, spectacular battles, and superb acting performances, Red Cliff is a nuanced approach to combat rarely seen on screen in modern times
Reeling Reviews - 9/10 by Laura Clifforda historical epic featuring great characters, extremely clever tactical maneuvering, and scope, scope, scope...
East Bay Express - 9/10 by Kelly VanceWith the costumed epic Red Cliff, celebrated Hong Kong and Hollywood action director John Woo wanders into unaccustomed turf.
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette - 9/10 by Philip MartinJohn Woo's best work has always been mysterious to me. He makes operas - we don't need to understand the words to sense their power.
Entertainment Spectrum - 9/10 by Keith CohenThis is one of the best foreign language films of 2009. Woo demonstrates a storytelling style of swiftness and grandeur that has been compared to the samurai classics of Akira Kurosawa.
Toronto Star - 9/10 by Jason AndersonWhat remains is still plenty rousing, especially to moviegoers eager to see Woo regain his footing after an increasingly dismal series of outings in Hollywood.
