Detectives investigate a mysterious murder in Tokyo.

Richard Kuipers

Variety

The central murder-mystery contains so many convoluted diversions, digressions and detours it makes the whole enterprise play like a long stream-of-consciousness sketch with a glaringly hollow core.

Its enormous box office numbers notwithstanding, I have to rate Detective Chinatown 3 as something of a disappointment after the raucously engaging first two entries.

There's a puppyish charm here.

South China Morning Post

While a relatively low bar, artistically speaking, Detective Chinatown 3 may be considered the best entry in the series to-date.

Rated: 3/5

John Berra

Screen International

Even when it is more dedicated to brand extension than the art of deduction, Detective Chinatown 3 exudes a heightened zaniness which is most welcome in today's largely homogenised franchise landscape.

Chinatown 3 is at least passably watchable compared to the horrendously nonsensical sequel. That being said, it's more of the same and if you're a fan of the series' meld of slapstick humour with sherlock holmes' style detective scenes, this one is a little more down-to-earth, but not by much. also, this one evidently is setting up sequels rather than just telling it's own story which is a tragedy of any successful movie these days.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

The movie is funny and has a amazing twist at the end which I think no one would predict.
