“Beautiful film and some frames are striking. It is slow and would take peserverance to sit till the end. I am surprised itu0026#39;d be shown in HK cinemas which are usually quite commercial – probably because of his big name. I fell asleep from 11-16th frame, then again the last two frames. But no audience left the cinema which I find quite amusing.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI wouldnu0026#39;t say itu0026#39;s a great film. At many points I was a bit disappointed at how rough the details were made…it was like seeing a large installation work of a respectfulartost in a gallery, but noticing execution flaws here and there.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt would not have been shown in hk cinemas or received that many awards, if it were a film by a new film maker.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s experimental but I can hardly describe it as a good film. Iu0026#39;d not recommend t to friends. Sorry.”
