Grant Watson Fiction Machine I feel that this is a film for those who want to see how experimental Hong Kong cinema can go, or for the die-hard completists following producer Wong Kar-Wai’s career. Rated: 5/10 Jan 6, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Underrated original movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/26/24 Full Review Audience Member Kot's assignment beautifully depicts WKW's aesthetic view of Hong Kong's hidden stories through Doyle's impeccable camerawork. The two stories about love and its lifecycle adopt an immediately surrealistic perspective, with the director-narrator explaining himself the creative process generating ideas in the run-up to carrying WKW's assignment. Through a further note of frequent narrative clarifications and a hint of Kot's humor throughout the dialogues, the work aligns with other WKW's highly visual works of the period, though giving the sense of a fine yet experimental production which detaches from the standard already seen with WKW's works. Investigating love and its development through paradoxical yet peculiar characters, WKW and Kot once again provide a delightfully aesthetic piece of work which makes the spectator crave for more.
