Movie Reviews

Chicago Reader - 10/10 by Ben Sachs[T]he sort of film in which every detail feels unforced but essential.
Boston Phoenix - 9/10 by Peter KeoughHui depicts the passage of time and the poignancies of the past with subtle, elliptical episodes, and the film draws on deep emotions without succumbing to sentimentality.
NYC Movie Guru - 9/10 by Avi OfferWell-acted, deeply human and emotionally resonating.
Sight and Sound - 9/10 by Roger ClarkeThere's none of the flashy food porn you'd get in an Ang Lee film such as Eat Drink Man Woman, but as a quiet examination of the central role of food in domestic Cantonese culture, this is about as good as it gets.
Daily Telegraph (UK) - 8/10 by Tim RobeyPerturbing truths about old age nestle inside an outwardly sentimental shell — it’s a less cosy or placid prospect than it seems.
Observer (UK) - 8/10 by Philip FrenchIt's a gentle, flawlessly observed picture, moving but never sentimental, about getting old, fulfilling familial duties, killing time and being killed by time.
The List - 8/10 by Miles FielderCompassionate but never sentimental, heartfelt but not tear-jerking and at once very funny and deeply moving.
Birmingham Post - 8/10 by Graham YoungNot since The Diving Bell and the Butterfly earned cinematographer Janusz Kaminski (Schindler's List) another Oscar nomination in 2008 has there been such a good film about incapacity.
ViewLondon - 8/10 by Jennifer TateThis poignant and emotional relationship study between an ageing servant and her employer requires more punch and focus, but is still a tender and heartfelt piece of drama with outstanding lead performances.
Empire Magazine - 8/10 by Simon CrookDirector Hui shows a different side to Hong Kong cinema in a tender drama that's illuminated by the marvellous Ip.
