      Time Out

      A patently absurd and funny movie, involving a series of spectacular fight routines, often filmed in slow motion, which are highly acrobatic and exciting.

      New York Magazine (Vulture)

      It doesn’t quite work, but Lee’s fight choreography is so riveting it doesn’t matter.

      The New York Times

      The action here is as black-and-white and as pleasantly, if naively, diverting as that in any western even though it was all shot in vivid colors.

      Variety

      Lee has a good deal of aggressive boyish charm. However, pic is archaically simple-minded in its storyline and marginally professional in its production. Lo Wei’s direction is a juvenile match for his own screenplay.
