Suzhou River Ratings & Reviews
The New Yorker
Richard Brody
Its twists and turns are so abrupt, its dramatic structure so elusive, that it requires a sort of roadmap to highlight its ironies and allusions, the realities implied by its calculated evasions.
TheMovieReport.com
Michael Dequina
The ambiguity of its story and its lush, painterly images give the film a dreamlike quality, but it taps deep into the soul of genuine, soul-aching romantic longing.
Nick's Flick Picks
Nick Davis
Gorgeous, enigmatic movie that probably adds up to very little, but Ye is a tantalizing imagemaker.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
An appealing little show-off of a movie by a young first-timer practicing his licks.
KPBS.org
Beth Accomando
Its visual style is gritty... and yet there is also a sense of the fantastical and of an achingly lush romanticism.
New Times
Luke Y. Thompson
Needlessly incoherent, and not much fun.
Offoffoff
Joshua Tanzer
The first half of this movie is an obvious imitation of Vertigo - right down to the adapted Bernard Herrmann music - but it always feels fresh and original in spirit.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A strangely obessive love tale from the 35-year-old Chinese director Ye Lou.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
The showy jump cuts and off-kilter close-ups belie an extremely well edited, even supple, piece of work.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
This is well worth checking out.
TIME Magazine
Richard Corliss
Lou Ye lays out a ravishing wasteland of femmes fatales and lovelorn tough guys -- all in 79 minutes.
San Francisco Chronicle
Peter Stack
This atmospheric film, even with its self-conscious style, is a show of major talent by Lou.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
An assured exercise in high cinematic style, it references a variety of films and filmmakers -- Alfred Hitchcock not the least of them -- but what it is preeminently is alive and dynamic.
Variety
David Rooney
A compelling story of love and obsession...
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Offers impeccable attitude and captivating atmosphere, but little emotional or intellectual impact.
Film.com
Peter Brunette
A delight to the eye, ear, and mind.
