Elizabeth Kerr Hollywood Reporter Despite a miniscule budget (that kept shrinking), Chiu has turned in an eerily relevant drama... May 29, 2018 Full Review Fionnuala Halligan Screen International This is a heartfelt, touching film by veteran director/producer Derek Chiu about his homeland, Hong Kong. Apr 26, 2018 Full Review Steven Neish HeyUGuys A jarring narrative shift late on doesn't detract from this compelling and intensely engaging film. Rated: 4/5 Jun 4, 2019 Full Review Edmund Lee South China Morning Post No. 1 Chung Ying Street is an artfully made, black-and-white character drama that paints an intriguing picture of life amid social chaos.

LABEL 2 每一代人都有属于自己的抗争，不发声就不会有改变。历史与当下衔接所形成的互文耐人寻味，社运退潮后一代青年无处安放的志向在片中被细致地展现。虽然影像本身并不能给观众带来更丰富的美学体验，但它对社会变革的记录无疑值得赞赏。 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/26/24 Full Review Audience Member While the comparison of the 67 riot to 2014 activity is not fair.
