Critic Reviews:

• ” Like a song worming its way into your consciousness in the rainy night air, Kore-eda offers us a film about all the ways we can learn the transformative possibilities of forgiveness, including from the movies. “ – Kathryn Reklis (The Christian Century)

• ” This is vintage Kore-eda, and it’s warm, wise, wonderful, canny and complex. “ – Sarah Ward (Concrete Playground)

• ” The film is also suffused with humour as the members of this odd family gradually become closer. There are some lovely, delicately handled scenes, the type of scene at which this director is adept. “ – David Stratton (The Australian)
