"The Last Time I Saw Macao" is a shotgun wedding of arbitrary narrative and generally random images. Go to Full Review Manohla Dargis New York Times 09/12/2013

02/25/2014 Very difficult film to rate. I give the film 4 stars solely for the reason that at it's conclusion, I was immensely satisfied that I saw the film. Ask me any question regarding what the film was about, or what the mystery was (let alone what the solution the mystery was), I couldn't begin to tell you. Whatever the answers, they were way above my head. Nevertheless, the film was a must see for me for the visuals/ meditative effect of the cinematography. "Intoxicating" might be a bit of a stretch, but immensely satisfying it certainly was.
