Critic Reviews of "Saving Face"
AV ClubSeptember 26, 2005The message here, as in every quirky ethnic romantic comedy, is 'follow your heart.' But wouldn't it be great if for once the characters cared more about the continuity of antiquated cultural traditions than their own personal happiness?
Toronto StarJuly 01, 2005Goes beyond the obvious into something a lot more current and meaningful: the need to make your own love, even if society looks askance.
Orlando SentinelJuly 01, 2005Saves face with terrific performances.
Globe and MailJuly 01, 2005Wu has a keen ear for the rhythm of speech, and much of the humour rests in the conversations' staccato beat -- in breezy put-downs and tossed-off asides and disgruntled mutterings.
Denver PostJune 24, 2005[Saving Face] gets its heart pumping by putting its lovers smack in the middle of family and community.
Common Sense MediaDecember 17, 2010Chinese-American mom and daughter reconnect.
eFilmCritic.comAugust 03, 2007Wu has abundant affection for her characters and a sharp eye for how they interact.
Film Journal InternationalMarch 01, 2007Exudes the kind of warmth and intelligence that delivers to well-defined segments of the indie-oriented audience.
Kansas City StarSeptember 16, 2005If that sounds supremely sitcomy, well, it is. But Wu and her cast elevate the proceedings.
Urban CinefileAugust 30, 2005There's a wedding, a death and two love affairs in Saving Face, and they all come as a surprise
Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA)August 12, 2005This indie film's wrong turns include a feel-good finish as phony as any Hollywood ending.
