Critic Reviews for Project Gutenberg (Mo Seung)

All Critics (6) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (5) | Rotten (1)

Chong's plot-heavy script has its share of pleasures, chiefly the opportunity for Chow to be more charmingly badass and threatening than he's been in a long time (and clearly loving it).

It has a plot with lots of twists and a director who is able to keep you interested even when some aspects of the plot do not make much sense.

Derivation is rarely as entertaining as this slick Hong Kong effort about a high-stakes counterfeiting operation - and rarely comes with such compelling and engaging performances...

Chong goes it alone here and double-hats as writer and director. But perhaps he has overstretched himself.

Boon Chan
The Straits Times (Singapore)
For all the incredulity its storytelling induces, the film affords screen legend Chow [Yun-fat] the most intriguing part he has played in years.

Edmund Lee
South China Morning Post
Perfect for those looking for something that packs visual punch with action sequences, and a plot that does not require much mulling over.
