Dull, meandering and ultimately pointless tale of unlikeable characters which looks stunning.

In this yet-another triumph of style over substance (more accurately, pizzazz over lack of substance), Wong Kar Wai uses perhaps his oddest collection of background music ever. At least it's an improvement on the deliberately irritating assault he used in Chungking Express.

If you love Wong Kar Wai, you'll eat it up. Otherwise, you have been warned.
