So Close Ratings & Reviews
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
A brilliant example of the genre.
New York Post
Megan Lehmann
Hong Kong's answer to Charlie's Angels has big guns, hot chicks and cool gadgets -- hooked into a junky killers-for-hire narrative so nonsensical it practically neutralizes any guilty-pleasure positives.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
If stiletto-heeled heroines outfoxing legions of dunderheaded males are what you're looking for, seek no more.
San Francisco Chronicle
Edward Guthmann
Has moments of style and audacity, but the script is a shameless muddle and the shifts in tone -- from gooey romance to hard-driving, hyper-pop action -- give the impression that the movie was directed by six or seven people in alternating shift.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
While the goings-on in So Close are programmatic up to a point, the action is frequent and always electric and the film has a streak of genuine wackiness.
New York Times
Elvis Mitchell
With the exception of some of the battles, which have the angry desperation of Mr. Yuen's inspired martial-arts choreography, Close is a nominal effort.
Seattle Times
Mark Rahner
Charlie's Angels only wish -- in some corner of their empty, overstimulated minds -- that they were as cool as the chicks in So Close.
Chicago Tribune
Allison Benedikt
I didn't really understand what was going on, but I loved every stylized minute of it.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
Contains some clever set-pieces, mostly involving a Cyrano-type communication between the sisters.
Bryant Frazer's Deep Focus
Bryant Frazer
Part of the feedback loop created when The Matrix, which co-opted Hong Kong filmmaking styles, began to influence Asian cinema itself.

spectacular girl on girl fights

could suck a tennis ball through a keyhole

Oz
A movie that's notable not so much for actually being well made, but for being exactly what a large chunk of the audience lives for - explosions, fighting & girls in next to no clothes.
Newsweek
David Ansen
A delirious example of grrrl power, Hong Kong style...master action choreographer Yuen keeps topping himself with one battle royal after another.
Salon.com
Charles Taylor
Luscious superstar Shu Qi and action expert Corey Yuen prove that Hong Kong movies can still deliver the goods Hollywood can't.
L.A. Weekly
Ella Taylor
Though it doffs its cap conceptually to the Charlie's Angels movies, this female actioner by veteran Hong Kong director Cory Yuen piles up more fun, accomplishment and giddy feminism than either of them.
The Hollywood Reporter
Joe Mader
This is all nonsense, of course, which wouldn't be a problem as long as the film kept the energy and humor going. But it doesn't.
New Times
Luke Y. Thompson
...wait'll you get to the movie's finale, which shamelessly cribs from Die Hard but adds kung fu chicks and samurai swords. Honestly, haven't you always hoped someone would do that?
