In a small town south of San Francisco, Sheriff Paul Del Moral (Pepe Serna) is driving home through the fog when he accidentally strikes a pedestrian, a lone Japanese man. However, before an investigation can take place the man disappears from the hospital without a trace. At the same time, Japanese mystery author Aki Akahori (Ayako Fujitani) takes a trip to San Francisco in order to escape the press tour for her latest book--a potboiler in her world famous "Inspector Takabe" series. Feeling lonely and vulnerable, she begins a romantic affair with a mysterious Japanese traveler from Reno (Kazuki Kitamura). Her new lover is charismatic and charming but abruptly disappears from the hotel, leaving behind his suitcase and a trail of questions...
Leave your thoughts about Man from Reno.
| Chicago ReaderJ. R. JonesWriter-director Dave Boyle is best known for his offbeat rom-coms with San Francisco musician Goh Nakamura (Surrogate Valentine, Daylight Savings), and his gift for eccentric characters redeems this standard whodunit. |
| Cinemalogue.comTodd JorgensonThis cosmopolitan noir thriller sometimes raises more questions than it has answers, just like its characters, but remains a compelling and well-acted murder mystery. |
| Baret NewsKam WilliamsThis inscrutable adventure proves a pure delight to unravel from beginning to end. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekA film that can be frustrating in its steadfast refusal to be clear about who's who, but by the end has become an effective neo-noirish parable about how slippery and shifting the truth is. |
| DCistPat PaduaA convoluted mystery in which the helmsman cares about his characters and doesn't treat them like pieces of meat or pawns on a chessboard. |
| The Public (Buffalo)M. FaustSmooth as silk but never self-satisfied in its accomplishments, Man From Reno is so solidly constructed that you can enjoy it even if you lose track of the plot at times. |
| indieWireMichael NordineLike his two leads, Boyle maintains a matter-of-factness that allows us to survey the evidence and reach our own conclusions. |
| Epoch TimesJoe BendelReno has several fresh twists, and it nicely captures the between-worlds vibe of the expatriate lifestyle. |
| The Film StageMarc CiafardiniSly, pensive and punctuated by the right amount of wrong elements to help keep you in suspense for the duration. |
| Los Angeles TimesRobert AbeleLike any good purveyor of noir, Boyle, who wrote the film with Joel Clark and Michael Lerman, understands that identifying someone is only one endgame while the mystery of identity is naggingly, tragically endless. |
