Critics Consensus: The Big Hit seeks to blend the best of Hong Kong and American action cinema, but ends up offering a muddled mush that mostly misses.

Reviews

Cinema Sight

Wesley Lovell

The film fails on so many levels that it’s hard to even remember the ONE extremely funny scene about one hour into the film.

There's a lot going on within The Big Hit and filmmaker Wong, making his North American debut here, generally does a nice job of juggling the various digressions and subplots...

The script, by rookie writer Ben Ramsey, is among the most disgraceful screenplays ever to be produced by a major studio.
