Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
The shift from social portrait to domestic soap opera practically negates the democratic message of the first section, but Yang's stylish filmmaking is impressive throughout.

rotten:
While attempting to chart the evolving parameters of a romantic triangle over two decades of Taiwan's tumultuous societal upheavals, Yang fails to adequately explore either the personal or the political aspects of his drama.

rotten:
In wanting to make a film that is both about sweeping societal change and small-scale personal relationships, Yang has missed on both counts.

"Girlfriend Boyfriend" starts as a comedy, but quickly turns into a soap opera with too many subplots.

fresh:
Though Mr. Yang paints a colorful portrait of a country grappling with new freedoms, his real triumph is a moving and complex love triangle that will configure and reconfigure into adulthood.
