Special ID Ratings & Reviews
RogerEbert.com
Brian Tallerico
It's impossible to deny that what "Special ID" does well it does extremely well.
Los Angeles Times
Martin Tsai
There's little suspense to speak of but plenty of roundhouse kicks to keep you shocked and awed.
The Dissolve
Nick Schager
[T]he story is a hopeless mess that from the outset seems to be missing key exposition that might help fill in some of its many gaps.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
You know there's something wrong with a martial arts movie when the only character worth caring about is the hero's mother.
Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
Hard-core action movies like this, with difficult physical stunts and limited special effects, are hard to find these days. Fans should not miss the chance to see the ageless Donnie Yen.
Slant Magazine
Wes Greene
The audience becomes conditioned to expect the action a few moves before the film makes them, which quickly renders the story tedious.
Village Voice
Zachary Wigon
Insanely dangerous stunts? Check. Obnoxious evil baddie? Check. Intricately choreographed fight sequences that are the film's raison d'tre? Check, check, check.
