Watch In Another Country Movie Online No Survey Legendary French actress Isabelle Huppert (The Piano Teacher, 8 Women, La cérémonie, and the current Amour) stars in the first English-language film from South Korean master Hong Sang-soo (Hahaha, The Day He Arrives, Virgin Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Woman on the Beach). The Village Voice calls the film "the love child Antonioni and Hou Hsiao-hsien never had." In a triptych of overlapping stories, three different French women (a filmmaker, an adulterer and a divorce - Huppert, Huppert and... Huppert) visit a small Korean resort town and encounter a flirtatious director, a lovestruck lifeguard and far too much soju. Hong's latest tale(s) of love, lust and misunderstanding, IN ANOTHER COUNTRY is an effortless, laugh-out-loud comedy that plays like a lost French New Wave classic.

Review For In Another Country |
By the time its third story kicked in, "In Another Country" lost me. Jeff Shannon-Seattle Times
If you take the film as the bauble it is, you'll be entertained by its lighthearted wit, social observations and resolute sidestepping of profundity. Walter V. Addiego-San Francisco Chronicle
A beguiling set of variations on a theme, a gossamer-light étude composed for delight rather than dissection. Sheri Linden-Los Angeles Times
Isabelle Huppert has reached that magical point where she gives a thrill of delight simply by showing up, her decades of great performances seeming to hover around her like a halo. Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post
A movie may be a representation of the world, but it is also something that happens in the world, which means that sustaining a cinematic illusion and breaking it are equally beside the point. A.O. Scott-New York Times
In Another Country sets its characters adrift inside its own narrative sphere, letting them live several lives in the course of an hour and a half, and letting us share in their freedom. Sam Stander-NPR
An intriguing little cross-cultural curio that plays like a woozy, jazz-improv riff on romantic futility and destiny. Brent Simon-Shared Darkness
Isabelle Huppert has an inviting, steady glow in Hong Sang-soo's loosey-goosey, humorously light celebration of the French star, cinema's possibilities, and his colorful, endlessly combative homeland. David Noh-Film Journal International
It's a fairly banal comment on foreign estrangement (or love) that could have used some roughing up. Joshua Rothkopf-Time Out New York
Hong Sang-soo hits the beach once again in his latest project, another austerely amusing study of hopeless neurotics making a mockery of leisure. Jesse Cataldo-Slant Magazine
An arty, though not particularly artful, experiment Marty Mapes-Movie Habit
The presence of Huppert in this one suggests an interest in branching out beyond the cult faithful. Karina Longworth-L.A. Weekly
Hong's film rejoices in the capricious nature of romance and the samsaric ebb and flow of life, and it makes confusion woozily pleasurable. Robbie Collin-Daily Telegraph
Yet another loving tribute by Hong Sangsoo to French cinema, somewhere between inconsequential and flimsy but pleasant to watch all through. Dan Fainaru-Screen International
It almost seems as if Hong is poking fun at his own single-minded oeuvre, creating a fractal representation of how his other films obliquely interrelate. Mike D'Angelo-AV Club
It is amusing and exasperating, with the amusing part just about in the ascendant. Mostly. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
