Reviews for In Between Days
The film has an admirable humanist agenda, but good intentions don’t matter much when you can’t care for the humans on the screen.
10/12/07
The camera lingers on the characters' minimal, but expressive actions, allowing the viewer to soak in their emotions rather than having them related to us through dialogue. In Between Days is more of an experience than your average movie.
02/04/06
Above all a meditation on loneliness, the narrative is frequently interrupted by static landscape shots accompanied by Aimie reading letters to her absent dad -- stabs at poetry that feel less poetic, and more calculated, with every recurrence.

Top CriticThis superb debut feature by Korean-American director So Yong Kim seems to be constructed entirely of the ineffable and intangible, those fleeting moments that most movies treat as throwaways.
10/04/07
The most intriguingly circumscribed romance of the year, In Between Days locates two Korean teens at a precarious point in their relationship.
06/19/07
A satisfying and very skillful piece of filmmaking.
01/24/06
Top CriticTouches a universal chord: that of families who never discuss sex and love with their teens. But this Korean drama has a glacial pace.
06/19/07
Kim keeps dialogue to a minimum and provides the barest of story arcs, using a handheld camera to probe subtle shifts of emotion in her nonprofessional actors.
09/07/07
Top CriticIn Between Days is instantly compelling.
06/27/07
Top CriticIn Between Days is shot in a documentary-like style, but some of the artistic decisions do not always work in the film's favor.
06/26/07
Painful, funny, unsentimental, perfectly measured in its ambiguities, it's exemplary low-budget filmmaking, the rare DV movie with an assured visual style and a strong sense of place.
01/31/06
Top CriticIn Between Days is a small slice of a suspended life, intimate and filled with the mundane details most people forget when the waiting is over and their real lives begin.
06/29/07
A touching and personal story that captures the swirling emotions of adolescence and the immigrant experience - and the heartbreak of being in the middle of both.
08/03/07
Too minimalist for its own good when it comes to story details and even essential basic factual information, In Between Days can best be described as a skillfully lensed missed opportunity.
08/02/07
In Between Days plays like a teen movie with all the narration removed.
07/06/07
A draggy, uninvolving bore.
06/28/07
There's an authenticity about this work that gives it a chilling flavor.
07/08/09
A quiet specimen of personal storytelling at its most exciting.
07/11/07
Top CriticIts theatrical release today is an encouraging sign that there is still room, even in the midst of the summer glut, for a small, serious, unpretentious film.
