Rob Nelson Variety Newcomer Jason Yee proves plenty adept at chopsocky, but his chops are nonexistent on the thesping side. Jun 15, 2012 Full Review Robert Abele Los Angeles Times In its moments of sometimes comically violent antagonism, the movie shows some flashes of genre pizazz. Rated: 3/5 Jun 15, 2012 Full Review Farran Smith Nehme New York Post At times off-putting, at other times outright campy, "The Girl From the Naked Eye" does offer a measured amount of queasy fun. Rated: 2/4 Jun 15, 2012 Full Review Witney Seibold CraveOnline It's a pretty good little noir with excellent fighting and the usual story. I liked the tone, I liked the photography, and I liked the characters. The pace is a little maddening, but the film is ultimately efficient. Rated: 6/10 Aug 22, 2012 Full Review Brent Simon Shared Darkness A pulpy, low-budget slice of film noir cross-pollinated with a martial arts flick, this Girl wins no awards for great originality but nonetheless serves as a stylish and engaging vehicle for the surly charms of Jason Yee. Rated: C+ Jul 29, 2012 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue It might be difficult to stifle laughter while watching this stylish but overwrought noir thriller.

Audience Member Asian crime drama. Guy goes hunting down who killed his girl... had potential, but I found this boring and easily forgettable. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member O filme é bem divertido quando não tenta ser mais esperto do que é, e as cenas de luta são muito boas. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member ok at best. a few decent fight scenes. a few naked titties and blood gore. good time filler and a less then solid watch. .. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member not bad, good fight scenes, i felt it lack story Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member An interesting noir thriller, The Girl from the Naked Eye has an impressive visual style but lacks a bit in storytelling. When a call girl is found murdered her driver sets out for revenge and turns on his bosses in order to find those responsible. It's a rather formulaic plot and the characters are the usual stereotypes. But this is made up for by the fight sequences, which bring a lot of energy to the film (though the fights start to become a little too choreographed). The Girl from the Naked Eye doesn't have much originality, but it's entertaining and has a creative aesthetic. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Awesome hallway fight scene reminiscent of Old Boy. "In its moments of sometimes comically violent antagonism, the movie shows some flashes of genre pizzazz." "There's a lot to like about the action film "The Girl From the Naked Eye," especially some crisp martial arts fight sequences and the subtle sense of humor that surfaces now and then." It's strange that Sasha Grey is on the cover, she has only a very brief cameo. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
