Hong's interest is not in identity crisis or duality of men. His double takes and alternate scenarios may seem manipulative but the movie is more to do with accepting a person for who that person is. It's also got to do with men's folly.

“‘Yourself and Yours’ is a great summer movie, where the over-lit qualities reflect a state of mind more than an exact reality.”

This is my favorite TIFF film seen on the ground.

Yourself and Yours, much funnier and seemingly breezy, really sticks around, its numerous complications and contradictions needling at the brain and refusing to settle on any one interpretation.

Hong Sang-soo returns with a recognisable mix in one of his most romantic films yet...

| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 23, 2020

Hong preserves mystery with grace, charm, and simplicity that enables us to stay open from beginning to end.

Yourself and Yours works depending on whether or not you buy into its playful metaphors. For me, it is Hong's most relatable observation of love.

| Jul 22, 2020

That there are numerous ways to view her and the story makes it one of Hong's most powerful and engrossing films.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 27, 2020

One of Hong's most lovingly nuanced works, a film filled with longing and regret that finds great beauty in the in-between moments.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 24, 2020

It has a catchy droll humor, if nothing else.

| Original Score: B- | Jun 23, 2020

Pure romance, a woman going to bizarre and baffling lengths to get the man she wants, as much The Lady Eve or A Woman is a Woman as That Obscure Object of Desire.

I found myself engaged and entertained watching these individuals explore and embrace important realizations that will serve them well and that offer vital reminders for all of us.

Longtime fans of the filmmaker may enjoy the change of pace.

| Original Score: B- | Jun 6, 2020

Fresh and enchanting, by turns delicate, romantic, mysterious, witty and crushing.

| Jun 6, 2020

An exhausting, and mostly frustrating display of emotional scab-picking.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 5, 2020

Hong's formal confidence yields a movie that's very simply constructed and utterly engrossing.

| Jun 4, 2020

The dialogue is as sharp and multifaceted as ever, and the supporting work provides quite a bit of levity.

"Yourself and Yours" may lack the depth and artistry of "Right Now, Wrong Then", but is definitely more entertaining.

... Hong Sang-soo makes the best movie of the year. Just like every year. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 5/5 | Apr 26, 2018

Witty, strange and hard.
