Solving one mystery unexpectedly quickly before diving into deeper, more searching uncertainties of human behavior and relationships, the third feature from Singaporean writer-director Yeo Siew Hua gradually reveals a broken heart beneath its sleek, chilly veneer. Read full review

What saves this from being just best-of list bait for upmarket film critics is the sincerity of the performances, especially from the core trio of Wu, Lee and Panna, each of whom projects a profound loneliness that’s never more apparent than when they’re in the middle of a crowded place. Which, this being Singapore, is just about everywhere. Read full review

Yeo Siew Hua shows that surveillance isn’t only about control—it’s also about how we see ourselves through someone else’s eyes. In the end, the film leaves us unsettled with the idea that being watched doesn’t just change how we act, it changes who we become. Read full review

Stranger Eyes belongs to Lee. Whether or not Yeo wrote it with him in mind, I can’t think of a better performer to flesh out the chasm that powers the film: between different ways of looking, between fears as old as time itself and the state-of-the-art technology used to bring them to light.

Lee Kang-sheng’s performance is the emotional and physical lodestone of a film about the fraught ambiguities of seeing through a one-way mirror. Read full review

Stranger Eyes is a cold, disjointed, and stale mystery thriller with a thin plot and no atmosphere. Read full review
