Top Critics Reviews

What is so engaging about the film is the way its director, Ki-duk Kim, manages to keep our interest intensely focused on the couple.

A movie meant to be taken on faith more than anything else. The more you can grant it, the greater the reward.

For the most part they achieve a delicate balancing act, mixing near-silent comedy with an old-fashioned sense of whimsy.

fresh:
It's actually quite satisfying, in a weird, magical-realism sort of way that manages to disturb and confound as much as it appeases the romantic.

Kim works with the barest of materials but returns the viewer's attention to the pure visual pleasure of filmmaking.
