Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Carla MeyerA masterful portrait of the seasons of a life.
Charlotte Observer - 10/10 by Lawrence ToppmanThis meditation on spirituality, loneliness and accountability could touch your heart's core.
Christian Science Monitor - 10/10 by David SterrittKim's movie conjures a sense of spiritual discipline as suspenseful as it is stunning to watch and exhilarating to contemplate.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kenneth TuranAs meditative and beautiful as its title would indicate. What is a surprise is the extent to which it manages to be involving if you can put yourself on its wavelength.
New York Magazine (Vulture) - 9/10 by Peter RainerKim exalts nature--life’s passage--without stooping to sentimentality. He sees the tooth and claw, and he sees the transcendence. Whether this is a Buddhist attribute, I cannot say, but the impression this movie leaves is profound: Here is an artist who sees things whole.
Wall Street Journal - 9/10 by Joe MorgensternTruly a movie for world audiences with a message that's devastatingly subtle.
Austin Chronicle - 9/10 by Marrit IngmanProof that movies don’t always have to be busy to entertain and enrich, this tale of life at a bucolic Korean monastery is at once profound and simple.
Boston Globe - 9/10 by Ty BurrThe film is as spare and unvarnished as a wooden temple floating on a lake, but its reflections run deep, and it can ripple your thoughts for months.
ReelViews - 9/10 by James BerardinelliUsing perfectly composed shots to amplify an emotionally resonant story, the film successfully argues that "artistic" films do not have to be boring.
Premiere - 9/10 by Glenn KennyAn exquisitely realized film; a little gem, it keeps its conflicting or varying themes of tranquility and violence, sacred and profane love, recklessness and wisdom, in almost perfect balance.
