The comic book simplicity of this movie’s plotting complements its action scenes, given the filmmakers’ focus on keeping the story moving forward.

Meet it on its altitude, and it’s a bloody, funny good time.

I admired this movie more than I liked it, primarily for its two lead performances, which are daring yet controlled.

It’s like being trapped on a vacation with people you don’t really like.

An odd duck of a superhero flick, one that almost leans into the skid of the MCU, and, by doing so, might actually straighten it out.

“Emergent City” is an old-school documentary that tells a story by presenting and arranging information and expecting you to meet it halfway rather than having everything spoon-fed to you.

Even those who admired the “Raid” films for their style and heedlessness might find this to be little more than an accumulation of action movie cliches that they have seen enacted to much greater effect in other and certainly better films.

“On Swift Horses” stumbles a little bit on its way around what feels like an extremely rushed final lap, but this is still a winner.

A film that will linger with you long afterward, but you’ll probably never want to watch it again. 

Tsang has made a small, affecting, and studiously minimalist film.
