Noel Murray, AV Club: EXCELLENT(cg) "...one of Hong's most unconventional films... Even the non-documentary segments create the impression of reality caught on the fly, via vérité-style camera moves and zooms."(See all of Noel Murray's reviews...)(Read the full review...) 414 words, 04/19/12
Cynthia Fuchs, Pop Matters: EXCELLENT(cg) "...at once ostentatious and ridiculous. That the ambition might outstrip the art is one possibility. That the ambition might shape the art is another."(See all of Cynthia Fuchs's reviews...)(Read the full review...) 793 words, 04/16/12
Nick Schager, Slant: MODERATE(cg) "...a lithe serio-comic investigation into Hong Sang-soo's own personal hang-ups... validates the increasingly unavoidable, dispiriting impression that Hong's cinema has become akin to a skipping record."(See all of Nick Schager's reviews...)(Read the full review...) 633 words, 09/21/10

Jay Weissberg, Daily Variety: FAIR "...revisits director Hong Sang-soo's booze-soaked world of film insiders, examining a love triangle from various p.o.v.'s without making any of them especially interesting."(See all of Jay Weissberg's reviews...)(Read the full review...) 507 words, 09/12/10
Justin Lowe, Hollywood Reporter: MODERATE "A sporadically absorbing romantic drama... performances are all fairly low-key, which suits the dramatic structure, but does little to animate the narrative."(See all of Justin Lowe's reviews...)(Read the full review...) 527 words, 11/15/10
