Sophie Monks Kaufman indieWire What begins as a crime thriller ends as a transfixing meditation on our personal need for recognition and the difficulty of finding this for ourselves or providing that for others. Rated: B+ Dec 5, 2024 Full Review Monica Castillo RogerEbert.com Yeo’s layered film goes beyond the conventional plot of a mystery to explore each character’s isolation in a crowded city and how the constant access to a camera has affected us. Oct 5, 2024 Full Review Cole Kronman Slant Magazine Lee Kang-sheng’s performance is the emotional and physical lodestone of a film about the fraught ambiguities of seeing through a one-way mirror. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 23, 2024 Full Review John Lui The Straits Times (Singapore) Its philosophical interludes and pensive silences are challenging, and the lives of its main characters are messy. But few film-makers here can match Yeo’s ability to ask heavy questions with such a light touch. Rated: 4/5 Jan 8, 2025 Full Review Ben Rolph AwardsWatch Yeo Siew Hua’s follow-up to A Land Imagined is a detective thriller that cares little about thrills, despite using the genre to grab the audience’s attention, as it gracefully explores the slow, emotionally draining effects of a dire situation. Rated: A Dec 10, 2024 Full Review Alexander Harrison Screen Rant Stranger Eyes has a straightforward thriller premise, but as it leads us around corners into places we didn't expect to be, its true shape unfolds. Rated: 8/10 Dec 9, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
