The Furious Debuts With a Perfect Rotten Tomatoes Score Ahead of Limited Release

Festival-tested stunt direction and relentless martial-arts choreography have won near‑universal critical praise and could lift interest in creator-driven action films.

Overview

  • Rotten Tomatoes reported the film at a 100% critics’ score as of June 9, 2026, a rare unanimous snapshot for a new action release.
  • The Furious moves from the festival circuit to a limited theatrical rollout starting Friday, June 12, 2026, in Hong Kong and other international markets.
  • Critics single out Kenji Tanigaki’s stunt direction and the cast’s fight choreography for sustained, brutal sequences that draw direct comparisons to The Raid films.
  • Reviewers note the story is intentionally spare—a revenge-driven father searching for his abducted daughter—and say the screenplay is thin but secondary to the film’s physical craft.
  • Reports differ on regional classification (examples include R and 14A) while runtime is listed at about 113 minutes, and the Rotten Tomatoes score could change as more reviews and audience responses arrive.
