Accessible & somewhat commercial social commentary at its regional finest, thanks to risin talent Fan & the uglier Tony Leung - the better one! Ménage-a-quatre plot oddly hilarious & captivatin. Bannin this only heightens glare of China's insecurity. End credits wonderfully rein...( read more)
Lost in Beijing is banned in China and its filmmakers are banned for two years from making films in China. What kind of nonsensical time-out is that? I want more of them to fall through the cracks and make films like Lost in Beijing--which is nothing like Farewell My He...( read more)
