For all its rough edges, Revenge of the Gweilo has an undeniable spirit. It’s scrappy, self-aware, and made with a clear love for the genre.

Rated: 3/5

Revenge of the Gweilo is an entertaining piece of ultraviolent B-movie madness. If you're into campy martial arts films, give this one a try.

Revenge of the Gwelio is a fun, at times stupid, decently acted action film. It’s something you can watch with your friends on a Saturday night whilst drinking and playing games. Especially if you enjoy cheesy, almost bad, but entertaining films.

Rated: 2.5/5

Revenge of the Gweilo works nicely as a little fun exploitation movie. A classic revenge story that may become quite enjoyable if you are in the mood for some punches, some blood and some shootings sequences.

It certainly is a film for a very specific audience and you could surprisingly be a part of that very specific audience. But you will never know till you see it.

Rated: 5/10

Watching Revenge of The Gweilo feels like it’s just trying to cash in on an audience they think is easily fooled.

If you're in the mood for goofiness, “Revenge of the Gweilo” is worth a watch. It certainly cheered me right up! Here, Nathan Hill takes us on a rampage fueled by revenge after his fiancée meets a tragic fate at the hands of the Asian mafia. The film hilariously mocks all the Hong Kong martial arts films of the 80s. The Gweilo, or "white devil," is a Caucasian drawn into a Chinatown Triad adventure filled with the kinds of mishaps and brawls you'd expect from a cheesy B-grade kung fu movie! Think Bruce-sploitation! With subtle nods to the video game ‘Street Fighter 2’ and Bruce Lee’s 'Game of Death.' The characters are fun, and female characters have sex appeal. Nathan Hill is living out his fantasies on film, and we’re here for it! “Jasper” mixes action, quirkiness, and unexpected laughs, making it the perfect pick for indie film lovers (guilty as charged!) looking for something different.
