Si hablamos de familias disfuncionales, la de Hwayi se lleva la palma. Criado por 5 "padres", todos ellos criminales, el muchacho ha abrazado la profesión de sus tutores con una inocencia desarmante, aprendiendo de todos ellos. Cuando la verdad sobre el pasado de Hwayi sale a la luz, todo cae a pedazos. (Sitges Film Festival)

For me, exactly on the border between three and four stars. Technically it’s very good, with decent action, but I felt the script has an overly complicated structure and that it communicates pretty confusingly with the viewer at times. And all that wannabe psychological crap like “To defeat the monster we must become a monster” was really annoying by the end. 7/10

My most anticipated film of the year has finally received English language support! This is the perfect portrayal of a teenage traumatic upbringing of five fathers of thugs. Hwayi: A Monster Boy is hyper-actively stylish and ultra-violent!! I stress the word violent once again! This film features more gore than any horror film in the last two years! It's a very uncompromising over the top ride that will wipe the eyes of even the most hardcore fans. This has no competition, this is definitely the clear winner in the action/thriller genre for the last decade. The warehouse scene is such carnage I thought I was going to explode like a red-hot boiler. I fully recommend it!
