camille l Pour le troisième et dernier opus de la saga A Moment of Romance III, Johnnie To prend les rênes et change totalement d'endroit et d'histoire. Nous sommes toujours dans le mélodrame mais fini les gangsters, nous sommes désormais dans la campagne chinoise pendant la guerre sino-japonaise, Andy Lau est un pilote échoué et Wu Chien-Lien une villageoise. Leur histoire d'amour, aussi touchante qu'elle puisse être, est assez cousue de fil blanc. C'est lors du troisième acte du film, où Andy Lau et Wu Chien-Lien retournent habiter en ville et arrêtent de gambader dans les champs que le film s'anime réellement. Mis en scène avec emphase, joué comme dans un mélo des 40s, A Moment of Romance III est un film académique, certes. Mais un film, qui, pendant 90 min, est assez passionnant. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Just like linking-up series of shots & scenes together, without any in-depth plot development nor interaction between the 2 leads. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member It is nice to see Andy Lau and Chien-Lien Wu together again, but this period piece love story lacks conflict. Not much happens, even though they did have me second guessing the fates of the characters. I had to watch it for Andy Lau, and because it was directed by Johnnie To. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Coming to the third series and also the final series of A Moment Of Romance,Andy Lau is back while Director Benny Chan was replaced by Director Johnnie To.The final series is not the best yet it has a good ending and still enjoyable.In the third series, it's romance genre mixed with World War one or two(I'm not sure).So,it still can be a recommendation for romance movie's friends but don't expect there is many explosion scenes like Pearl Harbor.A Moment of Romance 3 is more about the love relationship between the two main characters.:) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Aided by a heavy budget Johnnie To transforms the original AMOR-concept into a war-themed historical drama. But epic proportions and great panorama shots aside, the melodrama just falls predictably flat when Andy Lau ends up killing the baddies and getting the girl instead of lying bleeding on the pavement when bad karma finally catches up. Although technically almost close to a masterpiece, A Moment Of Romance 3 is closer to a failure emotionally. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Nice war time Romance.
