Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

tinachios Great movie. Romance in real life. Does anybody know if it is going to be a sequel?I am so excited with this couple and I would like to see their decision for the future.This movie introduced to me a new city that it is not seen often in movies: Hong Kong, really nice to see how the city looks like.

Artenisa I was deeply and truly disappointed. The movie started off great, I was really attracted to it as I am to all romantic movies. Now the thing is, their love was very clear and what I didn't like was that after the first night they met,they completely lost touch. The other thing is that after a year they met again and the story kind of repeated its self. And then suddenly, Ruby brings up that she's going to be married soon right as Josh made it obvious that he loved her. And then the end... there was legit no end. It was really irrelevant and I kind of wish I had never even started to watch the movie. First I was debating whether to rate it with a 6 or a 7 but then decided on 5 just because I was very very disappointed.

theweffy I give this movie two stars because as many have already pointed out, the scenery is exquisite and makes me want to visit Hong Kong. Although it sounds dangerous. I would run the risk of running into these two and dying of boredom.The two main characters' banter is extremely awkward and wooden. It makes you realize it's probably pretty hard to write good dialogue so I have a better appreciation for filmmakers who do. These two sound like they are actually Barbie dolls and children are speaking through them. For example:Boy: what are you doing here? Girl: I actually live here now. Boy: what? You moved here? To Hong Kong?I guess in case the audience fell asleep and forgot where the movie was set in. There are some problems that I had with the movie. Mainly how painful listening to the characters talking to each other which is the main focal point of the movie. I feel like I maybe could see what they were trying to go for and the premise is promising.. but you really need great writing to hold the interest of the audience. Too bad this fell very short. It's not saying much when the saving grace of a film is looking at the natural beauty of the setting its in - nothing the filmmaker can take much credit for, other than having access to a nice camera.

beezee30 In a city such as HK with millions of Asians, an Asian-American woman from LA ends up chatting to... a white man from NYC?! Really?!! The sheer coincidence is just unbelievable. I get that there are some American expats in HK but they are easily outnumbered by expats from the UK and Australia who tend to be mostly Asian. And what is it with Western media portraying white men as the saviour of Asian women? This would have been more believable if Jamie Chung was paired up with an expat who is Asian of Chinese descent. This is HK after all. The subject is briefly and quickly mentioned and brushed over in the film. If the film had explored the subject in more depth it would have aided to their character development.The film is full of spoken exposition. A film is supposed to SHOW not TELL. Otherwise I would have watched a stage play or an episode of a soap opera instead.The worst part is that the two leads exhibit zero chemistry on screen considering they are married in real life. There exist no spark of attraction between the two in the film. Bryan Greenberg's acting is passable but Jamie Chung is just awful, clearly requiring further acting classes. The cinematography is striking but the film is just style with no substance.
