Caitlyn_RhodesJuly 25, 2024This is a journey of learning to be a father. I couldn't view it objectively—blood ties and familial love are such tangled matters. Despite the melodramatic topic, Hirokazu Koreeda's gentle pacing and empty shots evoke profound insights. The film is filled with touching details, emphasizing how bonds formed through daily interactions are hard to sever.

Amelia_SchaeferAugust 3, 2024Este es un camino para aprender a ser padre. No la pude ver objetivamente, los vínculos de sangre y el amor familiar son temas muy relacionados. A pesar del tema melodramático, el ritmo gentil y las tomas vacías de Hirokazu Koreeda evocan conocimientos profundos. La película está repleta de detalles conmovedores, lo que enfatiza que los vínculos formados a través de interacciones diarias son difíciles de romper.

Leslie_MathewsJuly 28, 2024Esta é uma jornada para aprender a ser pai. Eu não conseguia ver isso objetivamente – laços de sangue e amor familiar são assuntos muito complicados. Apesar do tema melodramático, o ritmo suave e os planos vazios de Hirokazu Koreeda evocam insights profundos. O filme está repleto de detalhes comoventes, enfatizando como os laços formados nas interações diárias são difíceis de romper.
