Critic Reviews of "Soul on a String (Pi Sheng Shang De Hun)"
San Francisco ChronicleJuly 26, 2017Soul on a String has a modern Chinese epic feel, but has a quirky individuality that harks back to a time when Chinese and Hong Kong films had their own style, and not the mass-produced feel of so many of today's Hollywood tentpole films.
VarietyMarch 01, 2017Chinese director Zhang Yang eschews the thrill of propulsive duels for a discursive allegorical approach, serving up picturesque visuals, highland-dry humor, and karmic plot twists.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA)July 26, 2017Zhang Yang's follow-up to last year's amazing SIFF entry Paths of the Soul is a thoroughly gorgeous, intriguingly metaphysical take on the western.
Willamette WeekMarch 01, 2017Striking widescreen shots of ochre deserts and verdant landscapes help blend the lines between magic realism and classic man-on-the-run format, if you have patience for the two-and-a-half-hour viewing to take it in.
The SkinnyMarch 01, 2017A beguiling combination of Western and Buddhist parable, Zhang Yang's latest is a beautiful and thought-provoking work which suffers from being overlong and narratively unfocused.
HeyUGuysMarch 01, 2017A thoughtful and philosophical adventure feature with a surprising sardonic streak.
Screen InternationalSeptember 13, 2016Those who find their way to it will see breathtaking surroundings that shape the film's drama.
