“Poignant and intensely moving, Days gestures towards a reconciliation with themes of desire and sexuality that have troubled Tsai’s cinema since the beginning.” – Giovanni Marchini Camia, Sight & Sound
“In Days, the grand master of slow cinema Tsai Ming-liang beats his familiar drum of metropolitan loneliness and alienation. Yet there is also room for tenderness in the Malaysian-Taiwanese director’s most intimate film.” – Jos van der Burg, Filmkrant
