Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 90’s (1884 movies items)" Two stories, two lovelorn cops, two objects of desire: one a big-time heroin dealer in deep trouble with her boss after the cargo disappears, the other a seriously flaky take-out waitress who inadvertently gets hold of the keys to her admirer's apartment, all shot in a breathless kaleidoscope of color and hand-held camera work to create a mesmerizing portrait of Hong Kong in the 1990s. The film was a critical success, and is considered to be one of the best films, to come out of Hong Kong."

Chungking Express ei enää tarjoa sitä raikasta uutuuden viehätystä, enkä ihan samalla tavalla jaksa kaaoshidastuksistakaan innostua, mutta päämäärättömänä ja kuitenkin tyylitietoisena tunnelmointina se on mitä mainiointa tavaraa. Hahmotkin jaksavat kiinnostaa, vaikka käytös ei ole tarinallisessa mielessä kiinnostavaa. California Dreamin' soi päässä, eikä se ole lainkaan huono juttu."
Las películas más pendejas que he visto (95 movies items)"Una de esas películas comedias románticas absurdas llenas de clichés y que casi son toxicas.
