全面解构王家卫，解读20世纪90年代以来中国两岸三地都备受争议、在海外极受追棒的香港导演王家卫！ 评评理：畅谈贯穿王家卫电影中的题旨、风格特色等。如：王家卫作品有何90年代香港文化特点；何谓王家卫美学风格；从《旺角卡门》到《2046》八部作品的个别详细评论。
谈谈戏：是资料性的参照、补遗，让读者更立体地理解王家卫的创作及其成功背景。如：记述王家卫的电影在海外逐渐受礼遇的进程；细数王家卫编剧时代的作品，提供阅读王家卫日后导演作品的背景基础。面对面：张叔平、杜可风为你揭开与王家卫这最佳拍档的漫长合作之道；潘迪华解释王家卫的上海根；刘镇伟剖白跟王家卫的手足深情；谭家明、梁朝伟追述《阿飞正传》那已成传奇的最后一镜。 望穿秋水，香港终于有了一本王家卫电影专书。
由电影评论学会出版，潘国灵和李照兴主编的《王家卫的映画世界》并不是一本普通的王家卫作品影评集，它反而是一部集评论、访谈、辞典、地理志及文化延伸等内容于一身的巨著。正如李照兴在书首编者序所言：“做评论可以是为导演定位，但反过来也是为了明了自身。
问为什么是王家卫，也等于问：从阅读、挪用王家卫的过程中，我们得到什么？ 于是，出现于本书的文章，也就是一趟各自演述看戏的观点、关注、视野与兴趣。” 看王家卫电影，谈论王家卫电影和研究王家卫电影，可谓是我们这一代文化人的集体兴趣和义务。从《旺角卡门》的惊艳、《阿飞正传》的经典、《重庆森林》的轻盈、《东邪西毒》的沈溺、《堕落天使》的跃动、《春光乍泄》的绚璨到《花样年华》的秀丽，每一部王家卫电影，都标志着一个心情的烙印，也都是一次观影的期待。
《王家卫的映画世界》欠的是王家卫自己的现身说法，但正如潘迪华在访问中形容王家卫是一个害羞的人，他的性格成功为自己建立了一个神秘的形象，也延伸至他的作品里。事实上，王家卫不神秘，那便不是王家卫。书中因为没有了他而产生了一种不圆满的遗憾，但遗憾又正是王家卫电影的共通主题。
