If you like "DRAGON INN" do NOT watch this.

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2018

The makers of this film hate Dragon Inn and hate you.

Many people say "GOODBYE, DRAGON INN" is a non-film intentionally devoid of any artistic merit or any thought-provoking content.

I disagree. I think the only way this film approaches a degree of artist merit is in its borderline-sadistic celebration of the death of cinema. The filmmaker shows you a rare few seconds of "DRAGON INN" to remind you of what cinema once was, then shows you a series of 5 minute long static shots of empty rooms and hallways and staircases to show you that "DRAGON INN"'s era of entertaining, meaningful cinema is over.

"GOODBYE, DRAGON INN" doesn't mourn "DRAGON INN" though. It spits on its predecessor's grave. Some people may like the gleefully spiteful and purposefully monotonous tone of this film, but personally I think it's in poor taste.

I regret buying this DVD. I considered trying to my money back or donating it to a library, but I found the filmmaker's heartless mockery so distasteful I tossed my copy in the garbage can. In the end, this film did unintentionally deliver a moment of catharsis.

One of the best

Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2017

One would have to write as essay to fully explain this movie. It is perhaps one of the best movies ever. The first time I watched it I thought it was the worse movie ever with nothing happening in the movie. I was lucky to have viewed the movie in a film class and have a professor explain the movie afterwards. He explained to the class about the culture influencing the movie and explained what was happening in the movie that pretty much the entire class missed. There is more happening in this movie than any other movie I've probably ever seen. It is pure art to film so much action and to have it take upon a ghostly invisible quality. This movie is about a dying culture about a dying generation that once enjoyed going to the movies. Pay attention to not only the visual but also sounds. The sounds in the movie become the heartbeat of the theater. As the sounds fade the theater is dying. Look for two guys exiting the same bathroom stall in the men's room. Everyone in class missed this. Our professor informed the class that in some countries theaters are a place where gay men meet, much like parks and reststops in America. I can't believed how much I missed when I first watched the film. I was also lucky enough to see the movie that was within this movie on the screen before watching this movie "dragons inn." If you watch Quentin movies you may discover the similarities of it and his movie the hateful 8 (almost the same plot). He generously borrowed from dragons inn in a way of complimentation. Watch all 3 movies:) save this one for last it will make it a special treat. Watch with an open mind and a careful eye and ear.

Highly unusual... it's Art, but is it pleasure?

Reviewed in the United States on March 15, 2013

I must admit I didn't know a whole lot about this movie going in. I had stumbled on this in the foreign movie section of my local library and after a casual glance at the DVD jacket, I decided to pick it up.

"Goodbye, Dragon Inn" (2003 release from Taiwan; 82 min.) brings the story of the last evening at the Fu-Ho Grand Theatre in Taipei. Indeed everything is grand about that theatre, with its immense auditorium, but it is clear that the theatre has seen better days. On this last evening (we see at the end that a sign "Temporarily Closed" is put up at the theatre's box office), there is a sparse audience which is watching a showing of an old Chinese movie from the 1960s called "Dragon Inn". We follow the lady who manages the box office and just about everything else in the theatre. We get to know the projectionist. We also follow some of the movie viewers (with the inevitable loud and cranky indivuals), etc. There really is no other story line as such, and hence no dramatic undertone of any kind.

Highly unusual is that there is little to no camera movement in many of the scenes. Instead the camera seems to be an observer, as if the camera were us had we been there. At the end of the movie, when the theatre's house lights come on, we see the box office lady enterning the auditorium, going around to pick up some trash, and then leave. This scene takes several minutes, and may annoy some to no end, but I found it a thing of beauty. It does not mean that this movie offers a lot of 'entertainment'. This movie is art with a capital A. It is also one of the most unusual movies I have ever seen in my life and for that alone, I am glad I saw it. Thait said, I don't know that I would readily recommend this movie to others, as I rate "Goodbye, Dragon Inn" 5 stars for "Art" and 1 star for "pleasure".
