Two stories that intersect at love’s most reflective moments. How small the world really is when it feels like time and routine consume us, makes for quite an uplifting film.

I connected with this one quite a bit more than In the Mood for Love, even though the later effort felt a little more mature in its direction and composition. But here, the characters hit that perfect mix of quirky enough to be interesting, but grounded enough to be relatable and recognizable. The first story does a little better job of setting the atmosphere, but the second story is more enjoyable overall due to the more satisfying arc.

Fitfully intriguing effort from Kar-Wai is certainly visually inventive and well-performed, but the striking visual design and atmospheric direction can only carry this plotless affair so far (especially in the at times excruciatingly dull second story). At its best in the first half, which tells a rather sweet and romantic short-story of infatuation.

I built this film up too highly in my head, after placing In the Mood for Love as one of my favorite films and waiting forever to watch this after its Criterion release went OOP. While I can appreciate the cinematography, this doesn't have the same unstated feelings that I loved about ITMFL. I didn't get the point of splitting the plot into two stories. As for a breakup movie, it almost felt worse than 500 Days of Summer. Fav scene: homeless guy tossing back the expired canned food.

I liked the stories -- once I got over the initial disappointment this wasn't a Hong Kong thriller/shoot-'em-up, as the beginning seemed to promise -- and I could appreciate the artsy way "lonely souls" are presented here. But I just didn't enjoy the film, and I can't really explain why (well, other than "California Dreamin'" not being a favorite song of mine).
