Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Braced by spiky humor but tempered by sentimentality, Ping Pong might have been a disposable teen comedy if not for the Japanese film's unexpectedly thrilling action sequences and subtly profound observations about competition and the human spirit.
– Tom Keogh,
Seattle Times,
25 May 2007
fresh:
The movie has some of the feel of a good graphic novel and offers a lot of Japanese pop pleasures as well. The images are eye-catching and highly colorful, the pacing is fast, and the story and the characters are simple, grabby and archetypal.
– Michael Wilmington,
Chicago Tribune,

rotten:
An overlong exercise in sport as character-builder.
– Bill Stamets,
Chicago Sun-Times,

rotten:
Overlong and overstuffed with characters and situations, Ping Pong doesn't really succeed on a dramatic level.
– Frank Scheck,

fresh:
Ping Pong is probably the most extravagant celebration of a childhood game ever committed to film.
