Two women must overcome the male dominance in their lives or lose everything.

Aaron Hillis

Village Voice

The film plays like the work of a fifth-generation Chinese hack faking a lavish Hollywood saga on an indie budget.

New York Post

So beautifully filmed, it is especially sad that the script doesn't measure up.

Rated: 1.5/4

New York Daily News

Overwritten dialogue is matched by melodramatic performances.

Rated: 2/4

Frank Lovece

Film Journal International

The movie's tapestry and matrix of confused emotions is as breathtaking as the period fashions and as breathless as, well, Breathless.

Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat

Spirituality & Practice

A tepid and stilted Chinese soap opera about two sisters and their uneasy relationship.

Ken Fox

TV Guide

Beautifully art directed, costumed and shot (by Scott Kevan, who brought the same to exotic haze to the interiors of Secretary), the whole thing feels like a living, breathing tableaux vivant from a China that is about to abruptly disappear.

Rated: 3/4
