Leave your thoughts about Girlfriend Boyfriend.
| Village VoiceSherilyn ConnellyA celebration of (and cautionary tale about) personal and political freedom. |
| indieWireSerena DonadoniThe real heartbreak comes when writer and director Ya-Che Yang envisions them as compromised adults still clinging to their adolescent fears and desires. |
| New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThough Mr. Yang paints a colorful portrait of a country grappling with new freedoms, his real triumph is a moving and complex love triangle that will configure and reconfigure into adulthood. |
| sbs.com.auDon GrovesTaiwanese drama offers a romantic triangle with a novel twist. |
| Chicago ReaderBen SachsThe shift from social portrait to domestic soap opera practically negates the democratic message of the first section, but Yang's stylish filmmaking is impressive throughout. |
| New York PostV.A. Musetto"Girlfriend Boyfriend" starts as a comedy, but quickly turns into a soap opera with too many subplots. |
| User ReviewTeng-hao CForget about the social movements, this movie is mostly about continual struggles between a triangle relationship; between close friendship and the longing for love. It's just compelling. |
| User ReviewLovebingo RThere was never a film which made me cry AFTER I left the cinema. It was when I had time to reflect my life and the connection with the main characters in the movie. And when I had time to grasp the finer details and undertones of the plot. Being gay and one of the people marched to protest the Tianmen Square massacre, we had all experienced love and betrayal, social and political movements. The director successfully blended them (and other sub-plots) together with a clear message - let's be truthful to ourselves. Perhaps you really need to have some sort of connections to this movie to be moved - sorry, foreign critics won't get it. All lead actors are excellent, Joseph Chang is incredibly sexy! A thumbs up for everything. |
| User ReviewIris LThe loss of innocence of three best friends that mirrors the sociopolitical changes in the 1980s Taiwan is a heartache to see. Top-notch performances from the trio of young actors who convey so much with their minimalist acting. |
| User ReviewSteven LDid they really fight for freedom or were they only against the authority? |
