Rating: 2/4 --
The film's attempt at political commentary amounts to a half-baked treatise on good governance in the face of tyranny and socioeconomic exploitation.

Slant Magazine
Gorgeously photographed, edited with a crackle, lavishly populated and designed, this is a sheer non-mind-taxing crowd-pleaser

Film Journal International
[P]art political treatise, part spaghetti western, with kicky audio-visual touches that evoke a Sergio Leone-Quentin Tarantino mashup….Entertaining…
Los Angeles Times
Though it bogs down at times, Yoon Jong-bin's kimchi Western is a rousing, lavishly produced delight.

Variety
With its swooping close-ups, Ennio Morricone-lite score and horseback riders heading into a sunset, KUNDO: AGE OF THE RAMPANT could be a western.

Rating: B- --
It's not a classic you'll rave about for days, and at 138 minutes it does go on too long, but for fans of Asian period action, it will certainly serve.

One Guy's Opinion
Precision action sequences sit alongside dazzling period colour, coarse, crazy comedy rides side-saddle with domestic pathos, genre & tone are switched with deft ease, and the pace never lets up. [But] when anything goes, everything seems throwaway.
