REVIEW:
" Sumimasen, Love feels like a pastiche of the 2001 romantic comedy Serendipity — which employed the bill with the name and phone number device and the theme of predestined love — and Richard Linklater’s 1995 Before Sunrise. Like Linklater’s romantic drama, nothing much happens in Sumimasen, Love. Chie and Wu walk and talk while wandering through beautifully shot landscapes, although without the snappy dialogue and interesting conversations between the characters played by Ethan Hawke and Julie Deplay.
In the technical department, the editing is smooth and the visuals are pleasant, aided by what some might find to be an excessive use of hand-held shots that produce an intimate, documentary feel. Yet the film suffers from a lack of genuine emotions. The conversations strike one as lifeless and stiff, as if they were copied from a sentimental teenager’s diary. The two leads are often seen struggling with gestures of affection seen not in real life but in television commercials. Such flaws are likely to make it hard for most viewers to become engaged in the story and cause many of them to fidget in their seats or fall asleep.
Lin established himself as a promising talent with his popular drama-driven documentary Jump! Boys (翻滾吧！男孩) in 2005. A more mature director may emerge when he masters the ability to transfer the right amount of real-life emotions into a fictional story — not as much as in Exit No. 6, and not as little as in Sumimasen, Love.
