As the jailbreak escalates into a bloody, all-out riot, the fugitives and their allies from the outside exact a brutal terror campaign against the special agents onboard the ship.

Critics Consensus

Project Wolf Hunting's slight story takes a back seat to all the action -- and for fans of all-out cinematic mayhem, that's exactly as it should be.

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

The inventively relentless action is rather let down by a screenplay that is leakier than a minor supporting character after one of the many stab rampages.

Rated: 2/5

Guardian

If you had a pound for every slashed jugular and staved-in cranium in this Korean horror-thriller, you would probably have more than the film’s entire budget.

Rated: 4/5

[A] by-the-numbers body count flick that too often looks like an overproduced video game.

Rated: 1.5/4

Overall, I had a fun time with Project Wolf Hunting. It really feels as if Mr. X from the Resident Evil 2 Remake got dropped in the middle of a game of Call of Duty and just ran wild with it.

Rated: 7.5/10

The Geek Show (UK)

Project Wolf Hunting is a thoroughly entertaining gore-fest, ideal for fans of the extreme and continues the tradition of South Korea being a shining beacon of horror and violent thrillers.

Even at its most opulent, Project Wolf Hunting is nothing short of thrilling. It’s rare for an action film to surprise anymore, and I’d be lying if I said that I could tell where Hong-sun’s epic would go at any given minute.

Rated: 5/5

This movie is a cautionary tale of how it's not enough the have a good concept, you need plot and payoff. The majority of the runtime is dedicated to disgusting dismemberment and brutality, with badly done fake blood literally pouring everywhere. Nothing gets resolved and there is nobody to root for. There are only a few characters that get to say more than a few lines and before you can even think if you should be interested in them, they are killed in the most messy and gruesome way possible. For a bit, it looks like maybe the female detective (Jung So-Min) will have some arc or role to play, but she gets murdered before long - mercifully by being shot. Honestly, they should have killed the last survivor too - I couldn't care less about him. This movie is a waste of potential and a waste of your time.

Project: Wolf Hunting is one bonkers movie. Loads of ridiculous fun.. gory as all hell! A must watch for anyone who likes an unbridled and over the top entertaining action / horror gore-fest.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

no matter the size, shape or severity of the wound, gallons and gallons of blood will instantly be spewing out of it. unfortunately, not much is done to make this ultraviolence, or the characters surrounding it, engaging for the entire two hour runtime. after the first 30 minutes, the film just seems to repeat its methods of murder over and over again.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

While transporting criminals aboard a cargo ship, law enforcement officials must battle a violent uprising when the offenders escape their restraints. Umm, what did that doctor bring aboard? A thin plot but the star of this show is the violence and action. Once it gets rolling there's very little time to recuperate from one slaughter to the next. Choreography is top notch. There are some failings of CGI but I enjoyed the film so much I could forgive it.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
