"It's downright exhilarating to watch such a skilled director unleash his fury. It’s also deliriously funny."—Christopher Schobert, The Film Stage

"No Other Choice isn't just Park's funniest film, but his most humane, too – and that's quite something for a comedy as violent as this one."—Nicholas Barber, BBC

"A masterful work of cinema which might well be Chan-wook’s masterpiece. And given this is the man who directed The Handmaiden that’s saying a lot."—John Bleasdale, Time Out
