Variety
“DP Ante Cheng’s wonderfully intuitive camerawork. Equal parts dreamlike and gritty, the film’s visual style casts Hawaii as a gorgeous, ethereal sort of purgatory.”
Roger Ebert.com
“The film was beautifully shot by Ante Cheng, who used a lot of handheld camera-work which also manages to be carefully framed (no small feat). The colors are warm, deep, and emotional.”
New York Times
“Ante Cheng’s camera is restless and roaming, traversing neon-washed streets and rowdy club gatherings with equal finesse.”
Indiewire
“The soft intimacy of Ante Cheng and Matthew Chuang’s Super 16mm cinematography lends a personal sting to an encounter that countless people from Asian diasporas have experienced in this country regardless of where they were born.”
Slant Magazine
“Strikingly impressionistic imagery.”
