Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Noriko's Dinner Table embraces [suicidal] tendencies with gusto and striking originality. The film is a boldly fragmented and tantalizing saga.
– Kevin Thomas,
Los Angeles Times,
5 Jul 2007
rotten:
Noriko's Dinner Table is both prequel and sequel to Suicide Club -- but never its equal. It's twice as long and three times as ponderous.
– James C. Taylor,

fresh:
Although certain aspects of [director] Sono's opus may get lost in translation, you don't need to know Japanese to understand the pitfalls of contemporary communication.

rotten:
Too long by half.
– Leslie Felperin,

fresh:
One of the most ambitious tonal mash-ups in memory, Noriko's Dinner Table is a domestic comedy, a bloody psychological thriller and a comment on the fragility of identity.
