Justin Lowe The Hollywood Reporter Veteran Taiwanese documentarian Chen Mei-juin effortlessly pivots 180 degrees to deliver a nuanced narrative of growing up on the other side of the law in The Gangster's Daughter. Dec 6, 2017 Full Review Wilson Kwong VCinema The film has great elements that work well on its own, but when taken together as a whole, isnt unified enough to create the type of emotional impact one would expect Feb 13, 2022 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed It's almost uplifting in terms of what it leaves as a final impression even though it is a drama and one that starts with such a sad event. Rated: 4/5 Apr 17, 2020 Full Review Nathanael Hood Audiences Everywhere Though occasionally dry and slow, it's an effective drama that's fascinating for how it reconfigures the gangster genre to suit its own reflective needs. Rated: B+ Dec 27, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
