Raging Fire Reviews

This exciting Asian police thriller is riddled with as many genre clichés as it is bullets, but still manages to deliver the action goods in style.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 20, 2022

The main reason I bothered watching this movie was because of the presence of Donnie Yen, who is one of the world's best action stars. In this film, Donnie Yen is also the action director, and some of the action scenes are spectacular.

| Original Score: B | Jan 14, 2022

Just give us the damn story once. We've already figured it out the first time. This was not suspenseful as the film intended, just tedious.

| Dec 7, 2021

The explosive thriller succeeds in bringing a kinetic, frantic energy to the genre that is fresh and keeps audiences captivated.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 7, 2021

A fitting finale for the career of Hong Kong action genre doyen Benny Chan

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 3, 2021

Tse's Ngo is my movie villain of the year for 2021.

| Nov 28, 2021

Far from original - and a little murky in its agenda - Raging Fire is nonetheless terrifically directed when it comes to delivering thrilling action sequences. If only there were more of them.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 13, 2021

Donnie Yen's latest film is heavy on action but begs the question of whether the HK cop drama genre is overdone and in need of a refresh.

| Nov 12, 2021

Muscular, satisfyingly old-school action.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 11, 2021

Mixes old school action with clever writing to create a superior Hong Kong actioner.

| Nov 11, 2021

Has all the genre pleasures of an old school bad cop v good cop flick.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 8, 2021

The barrelling energy of the numerous thrilling action sequences, including a superb climactic fight in a church, will likely compensate for the occasional moments of flagging pace.

| Oct 30, 2021

Good, cheesy fun.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 29, 2021

It is a luxury to watch action this skilled and precise, with stunts that are simply beyond the abilities of most Hollywood productions.

| Oct 26, 2021

I just love the action sequences... the execution makes it all worthwhile.

| Sep 22, 2021

"Delivers so confidently it's hard to find anything to be critical of other than to wish there could have been more of it"

| Original Score: 8/10 | Sep 13, 2021

Benny Chan's final film features well-developed characters, exciting action, and a welcomed return to 90s Hong Kong cinema. Thrilling!

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Sep 4, 2021

Featuring a career-best performance from Nicholas Tse, and squeezing out as much dramatic bravos as one could physically hope for from action star Donnie Yen, Raging Fire hits all the right notes in this orchestral masterpiece of Hong Kong action cinema.

| Sep 4, 2021

The moral ambiguity long typical of Hong Kong action flicks now seems obtuse as Hong Kong increasingly becomes a police state.

| Sep 3, 2021

Raging Fire delivers everything you might expect of a formulaic action flick, which means that it delivers nothing surprising or innovative at all.
