After a decade of masterpieces that defined a personal style, Wong Kar-Wai dials it down to make a slower and more understated movie. And it's one of the most beautiful love stories ever put to film.

Well, that was disappointing. I expected something off-the-rails to finish off the day, but this was so tame. The character's actions make no sense at all and the story progression is really forced sometimes.
