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.

Sergio Burstein Los Angeles Times 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] Aug 15, 2024 Full Review Simon Abrams RogerEbert.com “Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In” is a once-in-a-while assembly of talent that will make even the most hardened skeptic agree—this one’s worth the hype. Rated: 3/4 Aug 12, 2024 Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News Seamlessly edited, action-stuffed Hong Kong epic that’s visually arresting and massively exciting. Rated: 3.5/4 Aug 7, 2024 Full Review Josiah Teal Film Threat One of the best action films of 2024 and one of the best martial arts films in recent memory. Rated: 9.5/10 Sep 16, 2024 Full Review James Preston Poole But Why Tho? A Geek Community It’d be hard to think of something in [this film] that doesn’t stand out. Making an action film that’s perfectly functional is hard enough. Somehow, someway, Soi Cheang’s Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In comes together and it’s an absolute triumph. Rated: 10/10 Sep 14, 2024 Full Review Ray Pride Newcity Bittersweet dystopian canvas, but also the purest action machine built on the choreographed denial of physics since the blunderbuss that is <i>RRR<i>. The milieu and the many martial moments are glorious. Rated: 10/10 Aug 29, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Jerel H Action scenes are top notch. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/15/24 Full Review Michael C Brickley 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. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/14/24 Full Review Joey M Enjoyed the drama and action Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/13/24 Full Review Earl 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. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/12/24 Full Review Donna W It was sooo good! Definitely a must watch movie! A+++! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/12/24 Full Review William L Exceeded all expectations, best hong kong movie in years. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/11/24 Full Review Read all reviews
