TOMATOMETER
3.5 stars out of 4 -- [W]e remain consistently intrigued. All three tales are full of complexities that evade simple characterizations and summations.
RogerEbert.com
The geometry of desire is elegantly plotted in WHEEL OF FORTUNE AND FANTASY, a wistful, moving, outwardly unassuming movie.
New York Times
Heterogeneous, unstable as a matter of principle, and utterly reactive to a world gone chaotic beyond the frame: few moral tales feel as modern as this.
Film Comment
It’s also arguably the most concerted expression of Hamaguchi’s artistic preoccupations to date.
A.V. Club
Each of these episodes is well acted, follows a reasonably conventional three-act structure and emphasizes interesting female characters in a compelling situation.
Variety
[A] Tokyo-set triptych of contemporary chamber dramas. Each of the three plots is shaped by chance and coincidence, doubles and echoes.
Hollywood Reporter
Hamaguchi’s method of improvisatory workshopping facilitates taut, even tortured, exchanges.

Product Description:
Kotone Furukawa, Kiyohiko Shibukawa, Katsuki Mori, and Fusako Urabe star in this anthology of unconnected (but thematically related) slice-of-life romantic drama films. The lives of three female characters – a model, a mature college student, and a 30-year-old woman – each take an unexpected turn as small yet pivotal coincidences sway the trajectory of desire. Written and directed by Ryûsuke Hamaguchi.
