It's not flawless, but it's wonderfully poetic and there are moments that are so beautiful. I love the cinematography, too.

Doris Dorrie's Cherry Blossoms translates a foreigner-in-Japan experience much better than Sofia Coppola could.

I think an intermission in the middle would help with the tonal shift, but both halves of the film work very well and there's some nice mirroring that comes through as it progresses. Beautiful images and moving performances helped a lot and the Tokyo Story references were nice.

"The film's soggy visuals end by reducing the plight of the grief-struck central figure to the stuff of overly prettified kitsch." - Andrew Schenker
