Is John Woo Presents Stranglehold still worth playing in 2026?
A third person action game from Midway supervised by John Woo, Stranglehold presents itself as a sequel to the film Hard Boiled, with inspector Tequila played by Chow Yun-fat. The gameplay magnifies the director's gunfight ballet: slow motion, slides, diving shots and fully destructible settings. The choreography of the gunfights and the Hong Kong thriller mood win you over. Repetition and a short length temper the whole. A stylish action game for fans of spectacular gunfights and John Woo action cinema.
