Movie Reviews

New York Times - 6/10 by Andy WebsterThe film may leave you hungry for deeper insight into some its most renowned purveyors.
Village Voice - 6/10 by Michael NordineWa-shoku isn't as contemplative as Kanai and his acolytes, though it might still make you feel like a dilettante if your Japanese palate begins and ends with California rolls.
Los Angeles Times - 6/10 by Sheri LindenDespite its clumsiness, the film conveys the melding of modern and ancient, sensuous and sacred.
