Jessica Kiang The Playlist Shot in pedestrian fashion, it is set in an intriguing and entirely foreign milieu, but the film ends up just too inscrutable and oblique for us to really engage with it, or its often incomprehensibly motivated characters.

Joey c This movie is like a rare feast only for Chinese locals, Ye Lou is the best director of China mainland right now, he is always dedicated to make the best work and an observer of Chinese society. You can peek into the deep darkness of China through his work, because he always tells the most Chinese stories of small people neglected by others. He is a rare treasure of Chinese movie industry, especially when the censorship is getting more and more suffocating now Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/25/23 Full Review Audience Member an awesome movie especially in China, a country which is not encourage them to film this. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member A film that can take you to the bottom of the hearts of blind people! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Ye Lou's ninth feature BLIND MASSAGE is the winner of BEST FEATURE FILM in Golden Horse Awards last year, and yes, it you are a sucker for pan-Chinese cinema scenes, it is a big deal. And before that it won a Silver Berlin Bear for its innovative cinematography for its DP Jian Zeng. Why innovative? Since the film is an ensemble piece revolves around a group of blind people who work in a massage parlour (no hidden agenda intended, it is a bona-fide service for massages only) in Nanjing, China, thus the film creates a distinct subjective angle when it conveys from the perspective of the blind, altering luminosity, frosting the shots and adjusting the coloration, particularly in a pivotal sequence when an equivocal miracle transpires, it is certainly a novelty to meet the eyes, but not essentially a groundbreaking stunt to be visually paradigm-shifting. keep reading my review on my blog: http://wp.me/p1eXom-1Wi Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member unexpected cruel scenes strength the world of darkness?
