Millennium Mambo Ratings & Reviews
Lessons of Darkness
Nick Schager
Even a minor Hou effort is brimming with poignant artistry.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Not a great film, but it makes the best of its shallow narrative and concludes with an emotionally lyrical payoff.
Entertainment Today
Brent Simon
A movie with long patches of interpretive quiet, Millennium Mambo is often pretty to look at, but needs a little more to say.
San Francisco Chronicle
G. Allen Johnson
A work of uncommon emotional density.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
It's not only a masterpiece, but also Hou's most accessible film to date.
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
A precise versification ruled by the unbearable beauty of youth at its terminus and decisions for a lifetime made at the trembling moment of crisis.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
There is artistry and a fabulous ambiguity coursing through Hou's meditative film.
E! Online
E! Staff
Magical in any millennium.
L.A. Weekly
John Powers
A ravishing bauble about la dolce vita in Taiwan.
Boston Herald
Paul Sherman
Looks and feels like one big, long commercial.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
Recalls the unease that crept over the world's youth back at the turn of the last century.
Boxoffice Magazine
Ed Scheid
Vicki's extensive narration is emotionally distancing and her character is too passive to sustain interest.
Salon.com
Charles Taylor
The combination of the thick sensuality of Mark Lee Ping-bing's cinematography and the gradual fascination that Hou's measured rhythms exert keep you watching.
Film Journal International
Daniel Eagan
Appreciative of Vicky's problems, Hou still doesn't appear to understand her character.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Amazing film.
New York Times
Elvis Mitchell
Hou Hsiao-hsien's latest movie has a much quicker pulse than several of his other recent films, but it is not nearly as rich or resonant as his other work.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
Sensationally shot by Mark Li Ping-bin.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
The film is an ethereal, opiate-induced chronicle of a young girl (a flower of Shanghai if you will) whose life is preciously unexamined.
Village Voice
Dennis Lim
A slow burn of profound sadness salved by some of Hou's most breath-catchingly beautiful passages to date.
The Hollywood Reporter
Michael Rechtshaffen
A mind-numbing case of style over precious little substance.
