At least one very very good review, from important source.

MOVIE REVIEW | '2046'
Desire and Loss in the Curve of a Back
By MANOHLA DARGIS
Published: August 5, 2005
The eighth feature film from the Hong Kong director Wong Kar-wai is an unqualified triumph.

....


The affair between Chow and Bai Ling consumes only part of the story (a science-fiction allegory that Chow writes constitutes another), but Ms. Zhang's shockingly intense performance burns a hole in the film that gives everything, including all the other relationships, a sense of terrific urgency....

Maybe, and just maybe, Hollywood is very block-buster movies. This
is a nice change from that. Or art/drama from the mysterious east
seems more fascinating to foreigners.

I found this;http://www.monkeypeaches.com/ . I found Faye Wong great in Chunking_Express (2nd movie in the movie).

Then what is popular ?
