Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Andy Klein (675) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 24 Mar 2012

Extraordinary stunt and fight work and nonstop excitement, but a warning to those who are at all squeamish: this may be the most violent movie…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Mark Jenkins (515) for NPR (1,713) on 23 Mar 2012

Arguably the most dynamic Asian action film since the 1990s peaks of John Woo and Tsui Hark, The Raid: Redemption works as sheer gladiatorial ballet…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Liam Lacey (1,725) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 23 Mar 2012

Plot, characterization and dialogue are merely the frame here for the real goods, an immersion into the Indonesian martial arts form known as silat…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Lou Lumenick (2,103) for New York Post (6,650) on 23 Mar 2012

Nothing in Redemption quite adds up, including the paranoid hero’s insistence that he’s being watched by drones…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Gary Goldstein (1,089) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 22 Mar 2012

Statham's broody charisma and veteran cinematographer Chris Menges' (The Killing Fields) eclectic views of contemporary London help hold interest,…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Andrew O'hehir (1,324) for Salon (312) on 22 Mar 2012

It offers some of the best Asian martial-arts choreography of recent years and an electric, claustrophobic puzzle-palace atmosphere that'll…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Scott Bowles (160) for USA Today (4,117) on 22 Mar 2012

Unapologetically brutal and unencumbered by much plot, Raid is the year's most turbo-charged film…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By David Lewis (299) for San Francisco Chronicle (7,630) on 22 Mar 2012

Iko Uwais is not exactly a household name, but the Indonesian heartthrob appears to be well on his way with The Raid: Redemption, a clever,…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Alison Willmore (681) for Movieline (883) on 22 Mar 2012

There's a sliver of a plot to The Raid, but it's really not worth going over -- when the characters pause to talk, which is rare, it does tend…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Michael Phillips (2,622) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 22 Mar 2012

The Raid is maniacal in its pacing and assault tactics. It's also, absurdly, rated R. Fantastic…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Joe Neumaier (1,294) for New York Daily News (5,623) on 22 Mar 2012

The special effects here are wiry martial artists grunting their way through fight after fight. It's exhausting but exhilarating…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Manohla Dargis (1,909) for The New York Times (9,847) on 22 Mar 2012

The mousetrap setup and tight fight spaces, the bad blood and cruel deaths - soon makes the movie grindingly monotonous, a blur of thudding…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Eric Kohn (1,203) for IndieWire (3,631) on 21 Mar 2012

As a statement about the fixed nature of cinematic tropes, Redemption provides a compelling supplement to Statham's current stardom…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Noel Murray (1,901) for The A.V. Club (5,644) on 21 Mar 2012

Gareth Evans' Indonesian martial-arts throwback The Raid: Redemption has a look and feel that resembles the best of '80s cult action movies…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 21 Mar 2012

I do wish that Evans were a better storyteller…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Roger Ebert (5,190) for Chicago Sun-Times (7,580) on 21 Mar 2012

This film is about violence. All violence. Wall-to-wall violence…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By David Fear (910) for Time Out (7,510) on 20 Mar 2012

There’s a need for redemption here, to be certain, and it has nothing to do with the narrative…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Ernest Hardy (466) for Village Voice (8,525) on 20 Mar 2012

Lean, fast-moving, and filled with game-changing fight sequences that have a brutally beautiful (or beautifully brutal) quality, Gareth Evans's…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Jaime N. Christley (95) for Slant Magazine (8,298) on 17 Mar 2012

This mostly no-nonsense, floor-by-floor ass-kicking panorama is admirably humble…

Review of Hummingbird (2013)

By Robert Koehler (477) for Variety (12,700) on 28 Feb 2012

Taking the genre to a higher level of intensity, the Welsh-born Evans continues what he started in previous Indonesia-set actioner Merantau,…
