A bloody thrill ride designed to test the limits of more squeamish viewers, The Night Comes for Us wields a stylishly violent, action-packed punch.

Unless you are on the programming committee for the most literally bloody-minded of film festivals, you have never experienced as ludicrously violent and gore-soaked a film as The Night Comes for Us.

Here's hoping that someone of Tjahjanto's visceral talent eventually finds a way to stop the bleeding.

It uses a thin plot touching on the classic Hong Kong action themes of brotherhood and loyalty as an excuse to string together a series of gonzo action set-pieces so ingeniously bloody that one could conceivably classify the film as horror.

9/10

Whatever misgivings exists with the final scene, it’s hard to get too upset with a film that so consistently delivers all it promises on the action scene and then some.

This was a master class in fight choreography, cinematography, and storytelling. I greatly enjoyed watching this!

This is incredibly violent to the point of disturbing. Nonetheless, the fight scenes are some of the best I've ever seen. But this is a very dark and depressing story.

You're here for the action, not the plot. But still, the plot could be a little better.

The condo battle is absolutely bonkers. The pool table sequence is an all timer too.

Overwhelmingly gory - the fight scenes aren't choreographed to a commendable extent, they just rely on senseless violence. Watch the raid movies instead!!
