Jae-Ha Kim (Substack)

A fast-moving action film full of special ops, backstabbing and political intrigue, "Yaksha: Ruthless Operations" doesn't pretend to be a prestige film. But it's a fun ride with a (straight-laced) fish-out-of-water concept.

Rated: 3/4

The plot in Yaksha: Ruthless Operations is quite weak, and the characters rather boring.

View of the Arts

For a film that follows several characters who bend the law if it means achieving their goals, it's a little dissatisfying the extent to which the film plays things by the book.

Rated: 2/5

Hyeon Na stands out as a direct heir to early John Woo, exhibiting a perfect pulse for action sequences... [Full review in Spanish]

This is a spy thriller that takes the proverbial "web of intrigue" to new levels.

South China Morning Post

Sluggish, predictable and almost wilfully devoid of thrills, South Korean action drama Yaksha: Ruthless Operations offers none of the unpredictable or mischievous antics teased by its curious title.

Rated: 2/5

Entertaining! I didnt realize that 2 hrs almost over even with a predictable plot. Good acting, the cast credible in doing the scenes. Like the tension of the 2 male leads and the rapport of the black team. Would like more scenes with the villain though. You'll want to go and check the night markets and back alleys because the cinematography is amazing!

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Na Hyeon directs this motion picture, Yaksha: Ruthless Operations to be good... You can't tell where to be filmed because it's in Taiwan... The script is excellent... Hiroyuki Ikeuchi as D7...He impresses me a lot acting the General in Ip Man... Sol Kyung-gu portrays great...

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
