Critic Reviews
Like "Tango," Wang's film also seeks to uncover whether sex without emotion is really possible, or worth the effort.
Provoke us into examining whether the onus is on the man for turning it into a commercial proposition or the woman for agreeing to his offer.
All Center of the World has is the double entendre of its title, some unremarkable dramatic and sex scenes, and some embarrassing moments for its very game co-stars.
It certainly has its moments (erotic and otherwise), but there just aren't enough of them.
Where Mike Figgis' film, with Nicolas Cage and Elisabeth Shue, bore deeply and darkly into emotional territory, The Center of the World turns out to be just as fake as its setting.
Offers nothing but tired "Red Shoe" Diaries-style sexploitation for the art-house crowd.
