      Cassie S 1. 这个世界上没有人知道自己想要什么，傻子等着骗子告诉他们人生要怎么过，骗子觉得自己可以骗到一切，没想到最后自己也被骗。原来这世上没什么骗子傻子之分，大家都是上帝眼里的可怜又可笑之人，这荒芜的人生里唯一的光亮就是那些真善美的点点闪光，抓住那些光亮，活着才和死有分别。2. 被吼是因为被需要。3. 骗子觉得傻子才会爱上别人，没想到唯有爱才能使人渡劫。 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/29/22 Full Review Audience Member Yang envisions Taipei this time as a perfectly spherical onion with all of its layers, the bad smell of crime and insecurity, the tears in the characters, the multiracial collage it forms and the background of each individual finding its course interrupted by the constant interferences of others. We go deeper, towards the onion's core each minute Yang tells us something, like a rare hybrid between <i>I Vitelloni</i> (1953) and <i>Mean Streets</i> (1973), until the cataclysmic finale. 97/100 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I am not esepcially impressed by this Edward Yang, as you can guess from the storyline from the mood and tone the picture delibrately produce. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Edward Yang's second last work. A movie that Singaporeans are too polite to make ourselves - of foreigners and locals scamming each other at the height of Taiwan's economic boom. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Not necessarily a victorious effort for all the protagonists,the feeling of boredom,reckless rebellion and oh-so comedic attention is what makes us get involved with this mosaic of intertwined events in Taipei.Superb performances from all the cast with Congsheng standing out,Yang is penetrative in the simplicity of the city's natural flow that we almost become part of its heat and bright lights. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Yang captures the spirit of a time of decadence right on. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
