Japan Times

“Ghost Killer” is the latest proof that Sakamoto and Sonomura produce superior action entertainment, no matter who is in the director’s chair.

Rated: 3/5

Andrew Murray

The Upcoming

Its combination of genres doesn’t always hit the mark, and its plot is a little messy. What Sonomura’s latest feature is, though, is a whole lot of guilt-free fun that’s filled with excellent action and a superb performance from Takaishi.

Rated: 4/5

Louisa Moore

Screen Zealots

A quirky mix of supernatural vengeance and action that offers a unique blend of comedy, revenge, and fast-paced fight choreography. This one is a fun, inventive, and offbeat remedy if you need a late-night action fix.

Collider

Ghost Killer is an outrageous concept that doesn’t feel fully explored, but director Kensuke Sonomura doesn’t waste his chance to put together some gracefully gratifying action sequences.

Rated: 6/10

When the action is at full tilt, Ghost Killer is one of the best action works you’ll see all year.

Their Own League

Ghost Killer is a fun, action-packed, crowd-pleasing and genre-bending achievement that showcases action filmmaker Kensuke Sonomura and lead actress Akari Takaishi as cinematic forces to be reckoned with. Highly recommended.

Rated: 4/5
