Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
The film's poignant depiction of human loneliness is undercut by saccharine notes and a drifting tone.
– Walter V. Addiego,
San Francisco Chronicle,
24 Jun 2010
fresh:
A charming, richly textured fable that touches on fundamental questions of existence.
– Tirdad Derakhshani,
Philadelphia Inquirer,
18 Jun 2010
fresh:
The movie is a fable etched in comedy, sadness, and mild existential philosophy. Yes, the object of Kore-eda's fairy tale is a life-size sex toy, but it's the size and emotional shading of the toy's new life that interests him.
– Wesley Morris,
Boston Globe,

rotten:
This follow-up, despite having been in the works for years, feels a tad rushed.
– Mike D'Angelo,
AV Club,

fresh:
The urban fairytale about an inflatable sex doll come to life gradually unfurls as an achingly beautiful meditation on loneliness and longing in the city.
