Mari must defeat her late father's student in karate if she wants to succeed the dojo.

Elizabeth Kerr

The Hollywood Reporter

A willfully oddball martial arts drama that rises above its modest station thanks to star Stephy Tang's lead performance.

Although perhaps not a film for those expecting a traditional martial arts genre film, The Empty Hands is an excellent second directorial outing for Chapman To

Rated: 4.5/5

Unseen Films

While there are meaningful moments, it still feels to unfocused to work as a full-length feature. There's plenty of meat here, but much too much fat.

Rated: 6/10

Highly entertaining, with a few actual laugh-out-loud moments.

Singer-actress Stephy Tang has never commanded the screen to quite the extent she does in this karate-themed character drama.

Rated: 3.5/5

Stephy Tang's acting is so harsh, a quite encouraging film haven't seen for some time. Got some insight of "Kickboxer" by JCVD, and the "Rocky I"

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
