Audience Member Time will never be enough for someone you love. Don't waste it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I really dislike its frivolous & naive script. Cecilia Cheung is already very good in her first couple of movies. Richie Ren, plus his Cantonese voice-over, is a complete miscast in addition to the problematic setting of his character. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member it's not the best in story and production but this movie always make me cry.. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member It's ok. You know what you are watching, simple. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member The shift from ultra commercial action to ultra commercial drama, and a sob-story of highest degree no less, doesn't really benefit Jingle Ma at all, and the result is pretty much equally dissatisfying in terms of characterization and dramaturgic verve. But since it's actually easier to suspend one's disbelief to the post mortem-fantasy of Fly Me To Polaris than the hi-tech silliness of Hot War, the former has some advantage over the latter. Thanks to Ma, Cecilia Cheung also got her first serious leading part, and Fly Me To Polaris is a reminder of the great potential she had before discovering Nicholas Tse and having babies. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member "recommend me movies that can make me cry", i said it to my friend someday. then, my friend mentioned 'Fly Me to Polaris'. right after that, i watched it. If u were there and saw me watching that movie, u'd find a lot of tissues around me, and my running nose. So,what i want to tell you is that, this movie is a perfect choice to watch if you want to cry. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
