Movie Reviews

Eye for Film - 9/10 by Amber WilkinsonThe breadth and depth of Japon belies its standing as a directorial debut.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 9/10 by Dennis SchwartzAn obscure and haunting and unpredictable parable.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Manohla DargisUnlike a lot of young filmmakers, the 31-year-old Reygadas takes his ideas about the world and our place in it as seriously as his filmmaking ambitions.
New York Post - 9/10 by V.A. MusettoThis debut feature of Carlos Reygadas is a startling achievement.
L.A. Weekly - 9/10 by John PowersReygadas grapples with the most elemental of issues ... and the result is sly, touching and more than a little loony.
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel - 8/10 by Nick CarterIts pretensions have the ring of, if not exactly a vanity project, a strictly personal obsession.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Ty BurrUnfolding at an elliptical pace that feels like a revelation, or tedium, or both, Japon recalls the glory days of 1970s art-house filmmaking.
New York Magazine/Vulture - 8/10 by Peter RainerReygadas has an impressive eye for otherworldly landscapes and an impressive ear, too.
Village Voice - 8/10 by J. HobermanA notably confident and achieved debut, amazingly shot in 16mm Cinemascope.
Hollywood Reporter - 8/10 by Richard James HavisThis excellent debut by Mexican director Carlos Reygadas exhibits a maturity rarely seen in a first film.
