Anyone who’s been looking forward to Wong Kar Wai’s first English-language film My Blueberry Nights (and I doubt anyone is, since the movie got about zero publicity…) might be sorely disappointed. The movie has gotten wretched reviews, as seen on Rotten Tomatoes:

Even the good reviews call the film ‘insubstantial’, which is something no one could say about his previous films like Days of Being Wild, Happy Together, In the Mood for Love or 2046. It seems Hollywood has done it again, taking a fine Asian director and turning him…lousy.
If anyone has actually seen the movie, please let us know what you thought!
