On Valentine's Day, a double-decker bus explodes in a fiery blast, killing many and leaving charred remains, with evidence pointing to a deliberate act by two passengers, Fai and Ike -- a gay couple from troubled backgrounds living on the margins of society. As retired forensic expert Lung Sir investigates, he uncovers their tragic story of abuse, homophobia, and despair, culminating in their decision to end their lives in a suicidal protest against an unjust world, leaving behind a haunting message: "On a beautiful day, we end our unbeautiful lives."

Phuong Le Guardian May 26, 2026
2/5
With no real inner lives, these characters are blank canvases on which social turmoil is projected. Far from subverting ongoing discrimination, this misstep renders the whole film woefully obtuse. Go to Full Review Jeff Nelson WeHo Times 18 hrs ago
2/5
Yau handles the bombing with such indifference, turning a blind eye to their devastating actions without giving the characters proper depth. Go to Full Review Joe Lipsett The Queer Gaze (Podcast) 3 days ago
2.5/5
The long runtime allows Yau to jump back and forth between the two storylines, though the overlaps prove a little too convenient. The big issue is the development of the romance: Ike and Fai's relationship isn't believable. Go to Full Review Casey Chong Casey's Movie Mania Oct 9, 2026
2/5
Herman Yau's bleak psychological drama overwhelms with its us-against-the-world angle. Go to Full Review Chris Mello In Review Online Aug 3, 2026
We’re Nothing at All is raw and messy, an imperfect movie that offers no easy solution to its anger. But that Herman Yau can improbably still find time and money to make hard-to-like movies like this is something worth celebrating. Go to Full Review Alice Shih Original Cin Jun 18, 2026
A-
It could be a crime thriller or a terrorist tale, but Herman Yau digs much deeper. Our anguish for the victims eventually encompasses that of the victimizers. Yau adds emotional layers to a story about social prejudice that he obviously cares about. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
