Many years after the bloody turf war that ushered in an uneasy era of peace in Hong Kong's underworld, the notorious Kowloon Walled City serves as a fortified, lawless safe haven for gangs and refugees alike. But when a skilled underground fighter runs afoul of the most feared Triad boss in Hong Kong, a bounty is placed on his head despite his connections to the leader of the infamous enclave. As his pursuers violate the tenuous territorial truce to exact their vengeance, the fallout reignites old grudges, bringing decades of building tension to a brutal, bloody boiling point.

Critics Consensus

An action-packed homage that nails the nitty-gritty choreo-crazed daze of '80s Hong Kong cinema to masterful effect.

A Hong Kong film that, without being a masterpiece, is tremendously exciting and contains some of the most dazzling fight scenes of recent times. [Full review in Spanish]

4/5

The fact that the film is on track to becoming one of Hong Kong’s highest grossing local films of all time, and screened officially at Cannes, is almost poetic and befitting of a cinema that was once the epicentre of commercial filmmaking in all of Asia.

Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In is still a more than competent, entertaining, action-packed ride, even if it's not the most original in terms of its plot.

This movie was Bruce Lee writ large. Great story with top notch fight scenes. Some mystical wuxia mixed in but done well like comic book violence. Violent without being gory.

Such incredible reviews on YouTube. It just shows that a psycho that was revenge and has power causes the trouble. It's an un- intelligent script. Some crazy fighter with spirit powers so he is better than Superman. A movie with a lot of psychos psychotic people. Mixed with some kind people. I was happy it was over with but what a waste of my day. Go see Wolverine Deadpool or wait for something coming soon.
