D
"The film moves at a dizzying pace, as it moves either backward or forward with no rhyme or reason."  Ozus' World Movie Reviews  Dennis Schwartz

3/4
"Oxide and Danny Pang transform Bangkok into ready-made speed for the raver sect."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

C
"A succession of set-pieces, each of them individually impressive but adding up to very little because there's nothing between them to move us."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

"Bangkok Dangerous mixes mindless violence, sappy romance, and philosophical pretentiousness. On the whole, it does the first better than the other two."  Film.com  Jonathan F. Richards

C+
"...an old-as-the-hills hit man story jazzed up by flashy visuals and a charismatic turn by the very good looking lead."  Reeling Reviews  Laura Clifford

2.5/5
"The film never escapes the constraints of its genre, but it's a hell of a ride."  TV Guide's Movie Guide  Maitland McDonagh

C+
"Doesn't make much of a lasting impression except as a case study in the dreariness of style-over-substance filmmaking when said style is the height of derivativeness."  Lessons of Darkness  Nick Schager

2.5/5
"Style-rich, substance-weak."  Film Threat  Phil Hall

3/5
"Combined with the rather touching romance that's trying to bloom between rivers of blood, the film is more than a little unsettling ... and unsuccessful."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

B
"No frills at all [on the DVD release} and a marketing attempt to garner some extra revenue by capitalizing on the [upcoming] Nic Cage version."  Reeling Reviews  Robin Clifford
