Shocking no one, My Blueberry Nights sits in last place. Wong's first English-language feature still has all of his hallmarks, but too many things get lost in translation. Unfortunately, it's too familiar, from the star-crossed lovers Elizabeth (Norah Jones) and Jeremy (Jude Law) to the pensive and thoughtful narration, it just doesn't offer anythi...
Based on the Wuxia novel The Legend of the Condor Heroes, Ashes of Time is actually quite a sharp divergence from Wong's style, something he had established four years prior with Days of Being Wild and reinforced in 1994 with Chungking Express. Ashes brings in all of Wong's familiar faces to participate in this period piece, but where it fell flat ...
It might shock some to see Wong's directorial debut so low, but Wong was just discovering his style in As Tears Go By, and the film's crime bend was clearly connected to the boom of crime films by fellow directors like John Woo. While Andy Lau, Jacky Cheung, and Maggie Cheung give strong performances, the plot is nothing to write home about. HK gan...
Wong's most recent feature is only number 7 because so many of his films are veritable classics. For any other director, this film might top the charts. Disguised as a historical martial arts film about real-life kung fu legend Ip Man (known, among other things, for training a young Bruce Lee), The Grandmaster is actually a philosophical movie, one...
At some point, in the making of this list, Days of Being Wild was much higher. But it's basically impossible to rank these movies after this point (I was clearly already struggling with The Grandmaster). This is lower on the list simply because, as far as stories go, this is one of the less memorable. We follow Leslie Cheung's Yuddy, a young man wh...
In a perfect world, Fallen Angels and Chungking Express share the same rank, especially since the two films are meant as companion pieces. But, Faye Wong's performance in Chungking pushes it just that much into spot number 4. But Fallen Angels demonstrates all the quirkiness and allure of what makes Wong's films great. Split into two stories, the f...
The yang to Fallen Angels' yin, Chungking Express is probably best known for its second story featuring Faye Wong and Tony Leung Chiu-Wai. Somewhere during the filming of this movie, Leung began to perfect his charismatic winsome smile, his deep longing stare, and that specific joie de vivre that he became so well known for in his films with Wong. ...
After much deliberation, Happy Together is number 3. While it originally held the number 2 spot, my personal connection to 2046 won over any unbiased defenses. As one of Wong's most chaotically romantic films, Happy Together follows the highs and lows of the relationship between Ho Po-Wing (Leslie Cheung) and Lai Yu-Fai (Tony Leung Chiu-Wai). Often...
Again, for me, 2046 and In the Mood for Love hold the same standing in my heart, though the latter wins out for the top spot for obvious reasons and because of how it changed upon rewatch. 2046came to me at a very pivotal point in my life. At the tender age of 14, when I was probably not supposed to watch this movie, my mom showed it to me, and it ...
Of course, In the Mood for Love takes the top spot. Not only because it is so often called one of the greatest films of all time, but because it is actually a rather unconventional Wong film that manages the restraint and subtlety that we don't often see in his other films. There are no gangsters or assassins, no androids or legendary warriors, jus...
