Leave your thoughts about Ryuichi Sakamoto: CODA.
| JWRS. James WeggSakamoto's deep, reverential love and respect of Johann Sebastian Bach...is apparent in his own, deceptively simple, humble and soothing lines that move steadily forward to fulfilling conclusions with a similar sense of inevitably. |
| New York Magazine/VultureEmily YoshidaWith a light touch but deep reserves of respect for fans both old and new Ryuichi Sakamoto: Coda is an extremely fitting portrait of the influential composer. |
| San Francisco ChronicleG. Allen JohnsonStephen Nomura Schible's documentary, Ryuichi Sakamoto: CODA is not only a portrait of a great artist, but a sensitive and engrossing depiction of the act of creation and its process. |
| Daily Telegraph (UK)Robbie CollinThis is a documentary that rejects every behind-the-scenes cliché around, and stands as an immensely moving and inspiring piece of cinema in its own right. |
| Austin American-StatesmanMatt ShiverdeckerFor fans who have been following his music career over the past four decades, you simply cannot pass up the opportunity to watch this as soon as you can. |
| Georgia StraightKen Eisner[An] intimate, emotional, and surprisingly small-scaled profile. |
| Capital Times (Madison, WI)Rob ThomasRyuichi Sakamoto: Coda is a fascinating look inside Sakamoto's process for creating art, and his humility in the face of nature's own creative process. |
| FILMINK (Australia)Julian WoodRyuichi Sakamoto's infectious curiosity about nature and the music of life, make for an engaging and moving subject. Highly recommended. |
| South China Morning PostJames MarshRyuichi Sakamoto: Coda serves as a respectful and sincere portrait of this provocative yet tender artist, who remains as experimental and innovative as ever. |
| Times (UK)Kevin MaherThe documentary...is never busy, never intrusive, and glides along at a delicate pace, occasionally capturing painful footage of Sakamoto forcing down a seemingly endless sequence of anti-cancer pills, but otherwise calm, respectful and thoughtful. |
