Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/14/25 Full Review TIM C Another must-see instant classic by Director Tsui Hark--especially when you're a Kung Fu fan or an avid reader of Jin Yong's novels, this is a fantastic treat & comes around once a decade. It's easily the best work of Tsui Hark's yet & quite possibly the best Jin Yong's novel brought to the big screen in recent memory. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/12/25 Full Review Frank The Gallants is a visually appealing wuxia film, especially for viewers who enjoy modern wuxia elements and special effects. The movie's visual effects are impressive, especially the design of the fight scenes, which blend traditional martial arts action with modern special effects technology, providing me with a fresh cinematic experience.

Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/09/25 Full Review T W Some whiz-bang action and rousing music, but the movie never every really lands any serious feeling. It speeds through so much plot and gives only surface-level treatment to too many characters and story threads. It also relies on miscommunication, missed connections, and other silly contrivances to generate drama. It’s fine, but could’ve been better Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/09/25 Full Review Tina Legends of the Condor Heroes: The Gallants really brings out the growth of its hero and the true spirit of chivalry. It does this through some seriously exciting action scenes and a gripping storyline. Xiao Zhan, playing Guo Jing, faces all sorts of challenges but never loses sight of his values—he sticks to loyalty and justice no matter what. His performance is incredibly moving, and you really feel how Guo Jing is this loyal, brave, and righteous hero. Xiao Zhan nails the role perfectly. His natural acting makes Guo Jing feel more real and multi-dimensional, which really brings the character to life. The special effects and action sequences in the movie are also a huge highlight. The battle scenes are especially impressive, as the director, Hark Tsui, uses modern special effects to blend the fantasy of martial arts with the real world in a way that feels smooth and believable. The martial arts choreography is spot on, and the action moves at such a fast pace that you’re constantly on the edge of your seat.
