The aesthetics and cinematography in this movie are just pure art.
This movie is all about the atmosphere, melancholy and longing.
The soundtrack is so beautiful. It adds a lot and fits the atmosphere perfectly.
It is so astounding to me how this movie grabs your attention with very little dialogue and story.
There is no other movie that can deliver as much tension between the main cast as In the Mood for Love.
Everyone should watch this amazing piece of art at least once in their lifetime.

This movie focuses on different social issues present in Korea, especially poverty and loneliness among the aging society.
All characters are very well written, and the acting of the cast is fantastic.
Only the storyline with the boy has some plot holes in my opinion.
The storyline might be too slow-paced for some, but to me it was perfect.
You should definitely watch this movie, if you are into Korean indie and arthouse movies.

I didn't expect to like this movie so much.Beautiful cinematography by Masao Shimizu and highly entertaining.
Still relevant today, showing the hypocrisy of the catholic church.
This movie combines comedy, exploitation, revenge, mystery and eroticism in an excellent way.
It's about a girl who enters a convent for the purpose of discovering how her mother died.
Highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes japanese pink film.
The movie features a lot of rape and torture scenes. So it could be triggering or disturbing to some.
