Instant Swamp
![Instant Swamp review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/instant-numa.webp)

![Winds of September review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/jiang-feng.webp)
"A very solid film with strong acting all around, some very strong shots and camera work and a pretty touching story about a group of kids growing up."

WXIII: Patlabor the Movie 3
![WXIII: Patlabor the Movie 3 review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/patlabor-3.webp)
"The animation is strong, the art style detailed, the soundtrack a real treat. And how often do you get to see mechs battle it out against a giant monster in a future-realistic setting?"
The Detective
![The Detective review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/c-jing-taam.webp)
"Oxide Pang succeeds again in making a visual masterpiece, although less experimental and in your face as his other films."
Dogville
![Dogville review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/dogville.webp)
"I never liked von Trier's Dogme obsession, as it largely contradicts my own views on cinema. Luckily the man suffers from a rather short attention span."
Love in the 1980s
![Love in the 1980s review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/love-1980.webp)
"If you're familiar with Chinese dramas then you'll feel right at home watching Love in the 1980s."
Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy

"A superb cast, intriguing characters and electrifying conversations paint a picture of likeable, 3-dimensional people who find themselves in somewhat awkward situations."
Creation of the Gods I: Kingdom of Storms
![Creation of the Gods I: Kingdom of Storms review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/creation-gods-1.webp)
"The film feels delightfully maximalist, with sprawling sets and costumes, bigger-than-life performances, an epic storyline, and some eye-popping visuals."
The Monster
![The Monster review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/the-monster.webp)
"The Monster is one of the best straight-up horror films I've seen in the past couple of years. It's creepy, it's dark and tense from start to finish."
The House That Jack Built
![The House That Jack Built review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/house-jack-built.webp)
"His latest is a strange but gratifying mix of drama, horror and comedy, with enough shock value to force some to leave while also showing enough wit to draw laughs from the ones that persist."
Adoration
![Adoration review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/adoration.webp)
"Adoration is a very impressive film that feels like a complete and unique experience, thriving on sublime cinematography, a perfect score and amazing central performances."
Incredible But True
![Incredible But True review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/incredible-but-true.webp)
"Dupieux's absurdist comedy is on full display here, the performances are on point and while I didn't fully vibe with the styling I can't but admit that the film has its own, unique style."
The Flowers of War
![The Flowers of War review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/flowers-war.webp)
"The Flowers Of War borders on sentimentality and poses as a very epic endeavor. It's Zhang's magnificent direction that erases any major critiques, turning the film into a proper epic spectacle."
Suzume
![Suzume review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/suzume-tojimari.webp)
"The animation is sublime, the art style alluring, the fantasy elements are elaborate and well-executed and even though there's a lot of plot to cover, the pacing is slick."
Once Upon a Time in Shanghai
![Once Upon a Time in Shanghai review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/once-upon-shanghai.webp)
"Between the stunning cinematography, the impressive fight scenes and the fast-paced plot it's hard not to like at least some part of Once Upon a Time in Shanghai."
The Isle
![The Isle review](/thumbs/img/movies/935xauto/isle.webp)
"While a little rough around the edges, there are many moments of raw beauty, contrasting cruelty and tenderness in a way only Ki-duk can, creating one of the most contorted romances ever put on film."
