Dennis Harvey Variety 06/05/2022
The follow-up to 2017’s 'The Outlaws' brings back Ma Dong-seok’s lovable lunk hero — and the same sharp mix of laughs and thrills. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
“The Roundup” is an action-packed sequel to the 2017 film “The Outlaws.” Often times brutal and very bloody, the movie also has its share of slapstick comedy thanks to its affable star Ma Dong-seok. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
'The Roundup' cuts straight to the chase: all it wants is to use a real-life story to develop a predictable and archetypical plot, and deliver brutal and well-choreographed action scenes. And it does as promised. Full review in Spanish. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
A fun and well-made film. Go to Full Review
Guillermo Courau La Nación (Argentina) 10/13/2022
3/5
Without straying from the "cop buddy" bible, The Roundup delivers a good script elevated by meticulously choreographed action scenes... and by a protagonist who is closer to Bud Spencer than Clint Eastwood. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Rob Thomas Capital Times (Madison, WI) 09/23/2022
3/4
“The Roundup” somehow manages to balance its hard-R violence against some fairly goofy comedy that wouldn’t be out of place in a Jackie Chan “Police Story” movie. Go to Full Review
