TOMATOMETER
[T]here is something almost profound in how comprehensively THE WILD GOOSE LAKE imagines film noir belonging in China’s seedy, second-tier suburban underbelly.
Variety
Diao’s treatment of violence is where he has really distinguished himself as a director.
A.V. Club
This movie doesn’t recycle film noir conventions so much as contrive -- with a genuine sense of discovery -- to locate these conventions in a realistic contemporary context.
New York Times
THE WILD GOOSE LAKE probes the cracks and fissures of contemporary Chinese society through the noir-tinged story of a fugitive gangster and the prostitute who accompanies him on his journey toward self-sacrifice and redemption.”
Film Comment
3 stars out of 4 -- In Diao Yinan’s THE WILD GOOSE LAKE, a stylish neo-noir of saturated colors and meticulous visuals, every single shot seems to be composed and lit with obsessive attention to detail.
RogerEbert.com
Diao Yinan’s fugitive thriller THE WILD GOOSE LAKE is a film that doesn’t hit you like a tidal wave as much as it gradually washes over you, leaving in its wake a series of memorable set-pieces and a dense, dark web of violence and fatality.
