Reviews
"Cop on a Mission" has received mixed to moderately positive reviews from audiences and critics alike. On IMDb, it holds a rating of 6.5/10, suggesting a generally favorable reception with some reservations. Critics have praised the film for its energetic action sequences and Daniel Wu's compelling performance, highlighting its authentic portrayal of police work in Hong Kong. However, some reviewers have noted that the plot can be somewhat formulaic and predictable, with certain narrative elements lacking depth. Rotten Tomatoes does not have an official critic score for the film, which is common for many regional releases from that time period. Nonetheless, fans of Hong Kong action cinema appreciate the movie for its thrilling chase scenes and solid pacing. Metacritic does not list "Cop on a Mission," so critical consensus beyond audience reviews remains limited. Overall, the film is regarded as a respectable entry in the early 2000s action genre, especially appealing to those who enjoy police dramas with kinetic fight choreography and a focus on moral complexity within law enforcement.
