I found ITMFL mesmerising and wonderful. Wong Kar-Wai went serious for this production and the results are all the better for it. If you didn't think much of Chungking Express, don't let that put you off this film. Overall, it's much tighter and soothing, with fantastic performances and a beautiful atmosphere.

ITMFL proves that HK cinema has a future beyond imitating hollywood rubbish.
