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. Go to Full Review

PridePosterStudios 09/20/2023 Blue Queerbait Crossing See more 12/23/2017 Charming little romantic dramedy from Taiwan. See more 09/20/2015 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. See more 10/12/2013 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. See more 08/11/2013 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.
