Anton Bitel Little White Lies A convoluted crime caper with strong ethical underpinnings to support its many moods and styles. Oct 21, 2008 Full Review Derek Malcolm London Evening Standard The film is made confusing not only by the twisting plot but by the varied styles of the three cult directors. Rated: 2/5 Aug 29, 2008 Full Review Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) Three of Hong Kong cinema's top names take turns to direct this batty heist-gone-wrong thriller, which proceeds from stylish-but-incomprehensible (Tsui Hark) through crunchy and violent (Ringo Lam) to just barking (Johnnie To). Aug 29, 2008 Full Review Ignatiy Vishnevetsky MUBI The beauty of the final showdown is that it's a form in which anything could happen. It's an emotional wilderness, a sort of invented environment that brings To closer to Andr Tchin than either of his two co-directors here. Dec 13, 2017 Full Review Thomas Caldwell Cinema Autopsy Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 2, 2011 Full Review Don Willmott Filmcritic.com Your best strategy is simply to sit back, try to follow along, and enjoy the hijinks. Rated: 3/5 Oct 16, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews

Atlis S Convoluted at times, but Johnnie To's style manages to pull through at various points. The final moments of the film like a fever dream or a start to a horror film, but the three main casts are interesting and likable. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/28/24 Full Review Audience Member When the 3 directors made the 3 sections to connect into a complete story, the line cannot be connected, is this expected? Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member It was a total disaster! The only segment that was worth watching was the final segment directed by Johnnie To! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member 3/10: A single movie directed by 3 HK directors - Tsui Hark, Ringo Lan abd Johnny To. Direction and story wise was top notch until the final end where it gets comical and ridiculous, which is a shame because it could have turned out better. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member The flick is okay, it's a cocktail of not so fresh ingredients. To seems to have choose a cast, put them in a shaker, shaken them all together and waited for the result. A strange triangle came out. Not a must see. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Hark, Lam (his final film) and To combine their efforts for superb directing of this awesome caper. In three half-hour segments each legendary director takes a turn. Temptation. Jealousy. Destiny. To delivers with an amazing ending. Four-bag Monte and Smear the Queer with guns! Great heist film.
