Reviews

  • This small gem of a movie always feels true and real as it gently reveals the quiet moments that define our lives.

    Kenneth Turan - Los Angeles Times

  • Painful family issues are more likely to stay beneath the surface, known to everyone but not spoken of. Still Walking, a magnificent new film from Japan, is very wise about that, and very true.

    Roger Ebert - The Chicago Sun-Times

  • The director has said that, though the story was inspired by the deaths of his parents, he hoped to make a film "brimming with life." He's succeeded.

    Walter Addiego - The San Francisco Chronicle

  • One of the more accomplished and beautiful films released thus far this year.

    - The Washington Post

  • This is life as itâ??s lived, not dreamed. And this is a family bound not only by sorrow, but also by a shared history that emerges in 114 calibrated minutes and ends with a wallop.
