PTU Ratings & Reviews
Backseat Mafia
Rob Aldam
A brilliantly crafted thriller which juggles a number of disparate elements and brings them all together for an explosive finale.
Eye for Film
Amber Wilkinson
An enjoyable, high-energy romp.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...all the moody cinematography in the world can't disguise the inherently dull screenplay...
About.com
Jurgen Fauth
Fresh situations, haunting long takes, and a final showdown that is much more interesting than anything in Tarantino's Kill Bill make this film ... purely enjoyable.
New York Times
Elvis Mitchell
Mr. To is a master of the game, and his command supplies pleasure, even when there are no surprises.

The characters are all defined by their place in the plot._They don't come alive organically, but seem distant and abstract.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
Style doesn't trump substance in Johnny To's quickie circus act PTU because the style is the substance.
