Reviews

New York Post - V.A. Musetto
If action's your thing, then the Chinese-Hong Kong martial-arts epic True Legend is your movie.
70
Village Voice - Nick Schager
In countless over-the-top set pieces, Yuen delivers striking combat clarity without sacrificing the visceral editing and crazy digital effects of modern bloodbaths.
70
Movieline - Michelle Orange
Watching True Legend, a wuxia film crossed with classic vaudeville, it's hard to figure out who's borrowing from whom anymore.
67
Austin Chronicle - Marjorie Baumgarten
There is no question that Yuen Woo-ping is a master of his craft, but True Legend leaves doubt as to his mastery of the art of storytelling.
67
The A.V. Club - Noel Murray
True Legend's heart is in the right place. It's just the body that's weary.
