SitAflyJuly 11, 2025Hsiao-Kang slows down all the clocks by seven hours for Shiang-Chyi, watches The 400 Blows over and over, and eats the cake she gave him, trying to connect with her somehow. But in the end, he still feels incredibly lonely. The director really captured the depth of isolated, helpless love perfectly.

Ammie_GloverJuly 11, 2025This is the kind of movie most people would probably call boring, but by the end, I found myself on the verge of tears. The director weaves together the lonely lives of three people through the passage of time. Each of them tries desperately to connect with someone they can never truly reach, and the harder they try, the lonelier they become.

Plantão CinéfiloNovember 24, 2021A love letter like no other
So incredibly soulful, wholeheartedly tackling so many themes that can't really be explained or quantified partly beacause they assume differernt aspects to different people, but Tsai just has that flair to capture and convey exactly what he's trying to say: loneliness, love, timing, and everything feels timeless. Yet another work of art.

Omar_JohnsJuly 11, 2025Es el tipo de película que la mayoría llamaría aburrida, pero al final me dejó al borde de las lágrimas. El director entrelaza las vidas solitarias de tres personajes a través del tiempo. Cada uno intenta conectar con alguien a quien nunca podrá alcanzar realmente, y mientras más lo intentan, más solos se sienten.

Boyd_McmahonJuly 11, 2025Hsiao-Kang atrasa todos los relojes siete horas por Shiang-Chyi, ve Los 400 golpes una y otra vez, y se come el pastel que ella le dio, buscando conectarse con ella de alguna forma. Pero al final, sigue sintiéndose increíblemente solo. El director capturó perfectamente la profundidad de un amor aislado e impotente.

Wen.dellJune 19, 2025Hsiao-Kang atrasa todos os relógios em sete horas para Shiang-Chyi, assiste a Os Incompreendidos repetidamente, e come o bolo que ela deu a ele, tentando se conectar com ela de alguma forma. Mas no final, ele ainda se sente incrivelmente solitário. O diretor realmente capturou perfeitamente a profundidade do amor isolado e indefeso.

Mago do FilmeJune 19, 2025Este é o tipo de filme que a maioria das pessoas provavelmente chamaria de chato, mas no final, eu estava à beira das lágrimas. O diretor entrelaça a vida solitária de três pessoas ao longo do tempo. Cada uma delas tenta desesperadamente se conectar com alguém que nunca conseguirá alcançar de verdade e, quanto mais tentam, mais solitárias se tornam.
