The scenes where the main song of the film appears and the protagonists come and go in slow motion, are a cinematographic orgasm rarely achieved in the history of the cinema

ksenijaMay 1, 2020"In the old days, if someone had a secret they didn't want to share... You know what they did?" "No idea." "They went up a mountain, found a tree, carved a hole in it, and whispered the secret into the hole. Then they covered it with mud. And leave the secret there…

- Vogue Italia likedIn the Mood for Love
very pretty dresses, very pretty cinematography
Lawndawn lovedIn the Mood for LoveAn odd story of romance, second chances, and the small moments of daily life we reminisce about all because of the person they were spent with. An odd story of two people who are trying to help one another, and in the end, it’s debatable if they ever did. Beautifully looking.
victoria v. is "meh" onIn the Mood for Love“The past is something he could see, but not touch.”
- PJ Suttles lovedIn the Mood for Love
There are so many questions I have about this, not for the plot by the creative process of every detail planted into it. I’m not saying I don’t understand the film, I just am so eager to know more about it. This film is nothing short of a masterpiece and I’m on my 2nd watch.10/10
catnip lovedIn the Mood for LoveI’m actually so upset they didn’t end up together. It made me cry. It’s so sad seeing people live in fear and doubt
jovanna is "meh" onIn the Mood for Lovei like tension, love and connection, it's so good but so SLOW 6.5/10
- SOL likedIn the Mood for Love
“The past is something he could see, but not touch.” It's all about the atmosphere and mood. Gorgeous soundtracks, perfectly synced with mirror and window shots. But it’s slow and some parts left me confused. Like I couldn't understand what happened right before the ending scene.
nevan lovedIn the Mood for Lovea brilliant and touching look at romance through grief; two people fall in love as their own relationships fall apart. the masterful cinematography adds immense depth to the subtle and poignant narrative which is supported by perfect performances, writing, and music. a true joy
Shm0b likedIn the Mood for Loveman this movie was very interesting. The tension and atmosphere of the entire movie left alot of questions lingering for me.. really need to rewatch this, another great won kar wai movie. changed my rating after watching 2046 coz I feel like I understand it a little bit more

Metacritic
Her (Cheung) gorgeously sad face and slow, lithe frame are the movie's hammer and chisel. One shot of her walking away from a rented room down a hallway is, all by itself, twice the movie of anything else currently in theaters.

In the Mood For Love is ravishing beyond mortal words.
Ed Gonzalez
Slant Magazine
In the Mood for Love has novelty value, I suppose, and plenty of pretty camera moves, but it's not really a movie you can warm to.
