“Blends influences and genres well, creating a tapestry of martial arts cinema with each fight sequence. The film takes the brutality of Man from Nowhere and The Raid mixed with the Muay Thai of Ong-Bak, the classic Kung-Fu of Ip Man, and even the comedically supernatural feats of Kung-Fu Hustle. [Director Soi] Cheang and the performers have created a fusion of everything cool happening in martial arts films from the last 15 years and thrown it together in a colossal labyrinth of soaring housing structures. — The plot is a perfect vehicle for the superb stunt performances throughout the film. —  Stunts and fight choreography blend classic and contemporary with the kinetic grace of a timeless Donnie Yen or Jet Li flick.” – Josiah Teal / Film Threat
