Although it drags on a little too long, this Chinese martial arts flick is thoroughly entertaining, thanks to its even pace, strong performances and impressive choreography.
February 15, 2013
the film uses its wire-fu trappings to allegorise Buddhist notions of self-transformation in a world of illusions. Throw in some inventive chopsocky tempered by romance, and you have a fatalistic wuxia about the martial pursuit of a "normal life".

This is fun and well-paced with fight sequences that, while not exactly screaming "Woo", still manage to dance off the screen.

There's little about Chao-Bin's other work to suggest the splendidly choreographed ballets of swordplay that feature here, with Woo's dexterous hand obvious in the fight scenes.

A female warrior attempts to leave her killing days behind in this polished but overblown Chinese period swordplay adventure.

Reign of Assassins offers plenty of exciting sequences, but it frustratingly never fully delivers what it promises to.

The flashing blades and swirling choreography of the endless fight scenes and the charisma of Yeoh keep you engaged but the end result falls far short of her Crouching Tiger triumph a decade ago.
February 14, 2013
A John Woo-chaperoned, Michelle Yeoh-starring martial arts adventure is a bit run-of-the-mill.

After a decent enough opening it becomes a fairly ordinary affair, the principal attraction residing in the heroine's weirdly flexible sword.

Come for the crunching fight sequences and balletic wire-fu, stay for some surprisingly affecting character moments.
