A young swordsman returns to solve a five-year-old murder case in 1930s China.

Jessica Kiang

Variety

Long before a rushed finale concludes its unnecessary 134 minutes, you may find yourself engaged by its jokiness, admiring of its action and absolutely longing for the fun to end.

The Hollywood Reporter

A dazzling but derivative piece oozing with adrenaline and anachronistic gags - including what's possibly a preemptive dig at film critics - Hidden Man more or less melts into a gust of hot air.

I am nonetheless heartened to see Jiang’s hyperactive approach to genre revisionism (if that’s what it is) stay the course.

Jiang still has a remarkable touch, ribald, playful and reflexive.

In the end, Jiang Wen is exactly and only Jiang Wen, and so is everyone else in the film: every character plays like a dispersed, splintered psychological manifestation of Jiang Wen writ large.

Jiang has reined in his critique of China's capacity for corruption while taking a go-for-broke approach to escapist storytelling.
