The New York Times -
The Day He Arrives has real force and its experimentation is in the service of a moving story about a man who, as he says at the start, has nowhere to go. And so he returns to a bar, a woman and situations that are always the same and yet always different - snow falls during one kiss but not another - playing a director whose life resembles a movie he keeps remaking.

Salon -
But at his best - and his new movie, The Day He Arrives, is among his very best - Hong offers a strange mixture of magic, mystery, rueful melodrama and dry comedy that's like absolutely nothing else.

Slant Magazine -
The geometry of human relationships is the main theme of Hong Sang-soo's The Day He Arrives.

Chicago Sun-Times -
The movie finds the right tone to present its bittersweet wisdom. It's relaxed. It's content to observe and listen.

IndieWire -
Maintains a funny and sad focus on its single petulant subject.
