Singaporean writer-director Eric Khoo's third feature is a beautiful, contemplative study of love -- unrequited, unfulfilled and reborn.
By Ken Fox FULL REVIEW
75
It might take a while to figure out what is happening, because Khoo provides no expository dialogue. But viewers' patience will be rewarded as the stories come together in a moving fashion.
By V.A. Musetto FULL REVIEW
75
A delicately crafted, gently inflected, lovely little movie about the need for love, directed and co-written by Singapore's Eric Khoo ("Mee Pok Man").
By Michael Wilmington FULL REVIEW
70
The fact that her story of triumph over unimaginable odds doesn't come freighted with mystical and religious bromides makes it all the more inspiring.
By Stephen Holden FULL REVIEW
60
Sometimes clumsy and dry, always sympathetic, and wryly interested in the impact food has on social intercourse, Be With Me is eventually affecting once its elliptical shape becomes clear.
By Michael Atkinson FULL REVIEW
60
A curate's egg of a movie that starts intriguingly but becomes increasingly frustrating.
By Derek Elley FULL REVIEW
60
One terrific love story sandwiched between two mundane ones in this three-part look at love.
