Movie Nation
This isn’t quite the spectacle that the signature films of the genre are, but lacking the seriousness of those isn’t exactly a shortcoming. - 60
The New York Times
The film acquits itself honorably, even if its ultimate message is disquieting. - 60
Los Angeles Times
Director Shinsuke Sato’s film may lack nuance, but fans of martial spectacles will have an enjoyable if exhausting time.
