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. Mar 6, 2021 Full Review Todd McCarthy Deadline Hollywood Daily 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. Feb 22, 2021 Full Review Peter Bradshaw Guardian There's a puppyish charm here. Rated: 3/5 Jan 23, 2020 Full Review James Marsh 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 Feb 24, 2021 Full Review 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.

jeremy z 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 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member The movie is funny and has a amazing twist at the end which I think no one would predict. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Hiroshi Noda the rich! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member It is a shame for the entire industry Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Yuri Lin L great movie!! I love it so much Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/20 Full Review Read all reviews
