    THE PROSECUTOR comes out in US theatres on 1/10, and if you want to see Donnie Yen kicking ass, you should go. Just don't expect any challenging moral questions about the justice system. Bad guys have never been badder, and have rarely been punched harder. filmexposure.ch/2025/01/07/t...

    The Prosecutor is a solid 3 star picture (which means it’s the best film Donnie Yen has ever directed) but my god, is the action just tremendous. First person action isn’t usually my bag but Donnie deploys it so well here. The final fight is truly spectacular too. Very funny movie!

    🧵 Donnie Yen’s new film, “The Prosecutor,” is his most complete film as a director. It is well-shot and doesn’t have many of the more egotistical decisions that plague a lot of his other work where he is the main shot-caller. (1/5)

    The Prosecutor (2024 Donnie Yen) This movie blows. Other than about 20 minutes of action, which is decent, but not up to Twilight of the Warriors, Raging Fire or even Yen's previous directorial effort Sakra, you get poorly shot, poorly lit, poorly directed courtroom drama.

    It’s 2025 and I’m excited to review the new Donnie Yen movie. Full review to come, but for now—THE PROSECUTOR, Yen’s latest Hong Kong star vehicle (which he also directed), is a corny, deliriously pulpy and very fun anti-corruption courtroom thriller. I’m glad he didn’t retire; he’s on a roll.

    The Prosecutor is now showing near me but it’s at a really shitty theater where the “youth” hang out. Last thing I want is to be surrounded by a gaggle of teen wankers talking over the film. Will teenage knob heads see “Donnie Yen” and buy tickets? Or not? Decisions, decisions.

    The Prosecutor is the most flat looking movie imaginable. I don't know that the style here works really, but at least it has a style. This and Legend of the Wolf, they're DONNIEEE movies, but The Prosecutor, outside of its action, felt like a pilot for a quickly canceled TV show.
