Critic Reviews

Loren King

A subtly comic, ultimately moving film about modern adult relationships.

Mr. Showbiz Michael Atkinson

A superb, wise, and witty Taiwanese film about being single and what to do about it. Read full review

Kevin Thomas

Director Chen Kuo-fu adds a refreshingly wry humor to this view and then deftly throws in some wrenching moments and an ultimately astounding final twist. Read full review

David Sterritt

Liu is dazzling as the heroine, and the movie as a whole strikes a lovely balance between comedy and compassion. Read full review

New Times (L.A.) Andy Klein

TV Guide Magazine Ken Fox

Each scene is beautifully written and exquisitely shot, and the sum total is an unusually perceptive picture of urban loneliness. Read full review

Amy Taubin

An intelligent, perceptive film. It's good enough to make you wish Chen hadn't sacrificed emotional complexity for a last-minute surprise. Read full review
