Key opinion
Fistful of Vengeance is widely regarded as a disjointed and poorly written continuation of its source material that fails to land its ambitious supernatural plot. While some praise the technical execution of its action sequences, others argue that the frantic direction and weak screenplay ultimately render the film incoherent.
| Acting | Iko Uwais and Lewis Tan demonstrate impressive martial-arts prowess and physical skill throughout the film. | |
| Screenplay | The screenplay is criticized for relying on generic superhero tropes, pompous dialogue, and a failure to develop coherent mythology. | |
| Direction | The direction is polarizing: some appreciate the stylish, uncut long takes and choreography, while others condemn the hyperactive, incoherent visual style and reliance on cheap effects. |
