Chicago Tribune
Sometimes cinema's highest achievements become clear only in retrospect. Days of Being Wild--now clearly revealed as one of the peaks of Hong Kong filmmaking and a masterwork of contemporary cinema giant Wong. - 100
Chicago Reader
Wong Kar-wai's idiosyncratic style first became apparent in this gorgeously moody second feature. - 100
Washington Post
Its themes of passion, heartbreak and the inexorable passage of time are eternal. - 90
L.A. Weekly
Like Proust's madeleine unleashing a flood of reminiscences in the narrator of his novel, Wong works the elements of his aesthetic — music, beautiful people and emotion — into a mood that so overtakes you it's nearly impossible to emerge from his films without feeling slightly drunk. - 90
Los Angeles Times
Director Wong is at his best in this rerelease of the 1991 film. - 89
Austin Chronicle
All those seriously interested in foreign cinema are encouraged to take a look at this atmospheric drama -- sure to be remembered as one of the key achievements of the Hong Kong cinema in the 1990s.
