Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times "Shanghai Red" largely emerges as a tantalizing, involving thriller. Rated: 3.5/5 May 3, 2012 Full Review Kam Williams NewsBlaze Juxtaposing a litany of opposing thematic elements, ranging from honor vs. disgrace to tradition vs. modernization to trust vs. duplicity, this multi-layered mystery shapes up like a modern morality play of Shakespearean proportions. Rated: 4/4 May 10, 2010 Full Review Ed Scheid Boxoffice Magazine Shanghai Red has an effective central performance by Vivian Wu (The Joy Luck Club), but the very uneven screenplay causes the film to lose steam. Rated: 2/5 Mar 8, 2010 Full Review Read all reviews
