3/5
What’s interesting is that despite the spaceship stuff this isn’t in the slightest a sci-fi film. It’s really a straight-up multi-stranded realist drama where the city itself, evolving and changing throughout, is one of the characters. Go to Full Review Simon Foster Screen-Space (Substack) May 21

Patrick Leung’s adorable plea for the power of imagination over the destinies life deals us is such a sweet melodrama, it’s hard too launch too many critical barbs its way. Go to Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse May 17

"Ciao UFO" is an excellent mainstream movie, well shot, directed, and acted, managing its nostalgic elements with restraint, ultimately resulting in a work that is both engaging and easy to watch. Go to Full Review Edmund Lee South China Morning Post Mar 20
4/5
Ciao UFO proves a remarkably effective piece of storytelling, resonating both as a touching character drama and as an elegy for a vanished "golden age" that now exists only in [Hong Kong’s] collective memory. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Kan S @RT40061149 Mar 28 An interesting perspective of bringing the side of Hong Kong before China took charge of the city in 1997. Though the storyline itself is nostalgic and touching, I feel like the the plot didn't fully with the UFO itself. More details on the UFO and the three main characters are needed to present in the storyline to ensure the message is delivered throughout. As for acting, the sadness can be deeper. Overall, a solid movie that worth watching. See more Read all reviews
