      Audience Member Charming little romantic dramedy from Taiwan. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member I must have added this to my Netflix rental queue ages ago when I was heavily into foreign films and I've had it since April 2013. It's a simple enough coming of age story that involves a love triangle between two best friends and a boy on the swim team. I didn't feel like there was any real substance and plodded along slowly. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member It is cute, it is silly, it is sweet. Feels like yesterday, I was one of those high schoolers. But now I also feel so old at the same time. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member i love these sort of coming of age storys. So nice. Reminded me of the movies Like grains of sand and Blue. I like hoe everything is not so clear cut and everyone is growing. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Beautifully told coming of age story Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Alexander W Absolutely loved it. So subtle, yet affecting, with some very memorable scenes. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/14/12 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Jamie Russell BBC.com Rated: 2/5 Jun 22, 2004 Full Review Mick LaSalle San Francisco Chronicle Blue Gate Crossing is 85 minutes of wistful gloom. Rated: 2/4 Jan 2, 2004 Full Review Frank Scheck Hollywood Reporter Gentle and reflective, Blue Gate Crossing ultimately doesn't make a terribly strong impact, but it does impress with its well-composed visual style and sensitive handling of bittersweet emotion. Nov 25, 2003 Full Review Chris Hewitt St. Paul Pioneer Press A wise, perceptive marvel: a gentle fable about an especially cruel time of life. Rated: 3.5/4 Apr 22, 2004 Full Review George Wu culturevulture.net Yee shows inventive skill at telling the story visually.
