Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News The result is an intimate story with heartfelt performances and sensual cinematography. Rated: 3/4 Jan 16, 2021 Full Review Teo Bugbee New York Times Though the movie could coast on the appeal of handsome faces and stolen trips to Taipei, Liu gives texture to their pretty pining. Dec 26, 2020 Full Review Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine With cinematographic virtues and despite some narrative shortcomings, Your Name Engraved Herein is a powerful plea against homophobia and discrimination, a hymn to freedom of thought and feeling... [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 7/10 Jul 31, 2023 Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut Your Name Engraved Herein has two performances, one electric and the other a slow burn, that complement each other in an emotionally charged film. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 9, 2022 Full Review Ben Turner The Pink Lens Like the recent Thai Present Perfect films, it feels like love on a micro-scale and not part of something bigger. But unlike its Thai counterpart, it takes itself much more seriously indeed. Rated: 3/5 Aug 31, 2021 Full Review Brian Bromberger Bay Area Reporter Despite these deficiencies, the film is eminently watchable, especially the second half, aided by the attractiveness of the two main protagonists, who construct a believable erotic chemistry.
