The Final Master Ratings & Reviews
The MacGuffin
Allen Almachar
Fans of kung fu and martial arts films will most likely get something out of this. For the casual viewer interested in diving into the genre, I'm not sure this is the best place to start.
The Last Thing I See
Brent McKnight
Xu Haofeng's latest has on obvious affinity for the martial arts films that inspired it, and has an authentic period wuxia feel, but never steps beyond those boundaries.

Sean Axmaker
It's an interesting theme with historical resonance-the filmmaker suggests that the failure to share power and knowledge left them vulnerable to invaders-but a confused story that gets lost in the subterfuge and machinations.
Nerdist
Scott Beggs
The Final Master is an exceptionally good action flick. Kung Fu at its absolute finest with a classic story and solid performances to boot.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
Xu Haofeng's historical martial-arts thriller is a bit choppy, but its deadly Wing Chun fight scenes have passion and zing.
The Playlist
Oktay Ege Kozak
Those who look for a more patient and meditative experience within the [martial-arts] genre will get more than their money's worth.
RogerEbert.com
Odie Henderson
This is a juicy, beach read of a movie, the kind of overstuffed story you'd devour in book form while slumming on the sand under an umbrella.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
Hefty daggers, staggering broadswords and even battle axes are unsheathed and duly deployed throughout.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Haofeng's movie doesn't feel like many other movies of its ilk. That's mostly a good thing, even if the movie can't quite fit all its eccentric pieces into a satisfying whole.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
Initially astonishing, overly complicated, increasingly incoherent, and ultimately silly ...
Washington Post
Mark Jenkins
During the impressive action sequences - which Xu choreographed himself - the director plays it straight. Otherwise, he introduces playful kinks into most of the genre's other conventions.
Seattle Times
Soren Andersen
A Chinese martial-arts movie of rich visual beauty and intricate narrative complexity.
Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
There's not a lot of fun in The Final Master, unless the systematic annihilation of anonymous opponents is your thing.
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
Between action sequences, confusion tends to reign.
SF Weekly
Sherilyn Connelly
The real selling point is the fighting, and if you're a fan of fighting with knives, The Final Master has got you covered.
San Francisco Chronicle
G. Allen Johnson
The fight climax and very interesting resolution cap off an exhilarating two hours of entertainment - and suggests a sequel to come. Hope there is one.
Village Voice
Simon Abrams
Panoramic wide-angle photography makes even the most claustrophobic side-street-set brawls look inviting, while crystal-clear extreme close-ups drive intimate parries and thrusts home.
Slant Magazine
Oleg Ivanov
The film is a seemingly endless series of convoluted double-dealing, backstabbing, and factional realignment.
