Serves as an amusing itinerary of dining, drinking and sexual dalliance that beguilingly plays with narrative time. Full Review

But at his best - and his new movie, The Day He Arrives, is among his very best - Hong offers a strange mixture of magic, mystery, rueful melodrama and dry comedy that's like absolutely nothing else. Full Review

Maintains a funny and sad focus on its single petulant subject. Full Review

The geometry of human relationships is the main theme of Hong Sang-soo's The Day He Arrives. Full Review

Variety
An agreeably meandering exercise that brings some clever French New Wave fillips and structural repetitions to Hong's characteristically boozy party. Rougher but more approachable than his previous "Oki's Movie." Full Review
