Movie Reviews

The Telegraph - 10/10 by Robbie CollinMirai bathes ordinary family life in a beautiful new light.
TheWrap - 10/10 by Carlos AguilarBreathing rare emotional truth into on-screen depictions of small children and the parents who raise them, Hosoda’s unassumingly sumptuous Mirai is a hand-drawn miracle, rivaling Pixar and Ghibli’s efforts to devise family entertainment with a complex and humanistic edge.
Seattle Times - 9/10 by Jeff ShannonThis is one of the most thoughtfully engaging anime features to reach these shores, and a perfect place to start for anyone, of any age, who's been resistant to anime (and manga) as a popular Japanese import.
The New York Times - 9/10 by Bilge EbiriFluctuating between the minor daily occurrences of Kun’s life and his touching sojourns into the past and the future, Hosoda’s film privileges moments of emotion over belabored story mechanics. Thus, it gathers complexity without sacrificing any of its guileless modesty.
Boston Globe - 9/10 by Ty BurrWhat makes The Girl Who Leapt Through Time such an unexpected treat is the contemplative pace and painterly visuals.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 9/10 by Bill WhiteWhile the animation is only so-so, Mamoru is a good storyteller with a firm grasp on both the story and characters.
Variety - 9/10 by Peter DebrugeIt’s the work of a true auteur (in what feels like his most personal film yet) presented as innocuous family entertainment.
Austin Chronicle - 9/10 by Marc SavlovAn anime version of "Mr. Mom" this is not. Director Hosoda’s clear-eyed story allows for comic moments of fatherly ineptitude but focuses just as often on the marital and familial stress this sudden role reversal causes.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kenneth TuranMaster Japanese animator Mamoru Hosoda makes family films, but not in the way you think. It’s not that his films are suitable for all ages, though they mostly are. And it’s not even that the family unit is central to his work, though it is. Rather it’s that Hosoda’s films stretch the boundaries of both style and content within the family film rubric.
Rolling Stone - 9/10 by Peter TraversMirai casts a spell that works on children and adults alike, but in different ways. Its creator’s artistry and empathy are the connecting links. It may be the animator’s smallest film, but it stands tall. You’ll be enchanted.
