The director of “Our Little Sister” returns with a deeply felt family tale, focused on a deadbeat dad trying to do better.

If civilization were to end tomorrow — and who the hell knows, it just might — we could learn a lot about building the next one from the films of Hirokazu Kore-eda.
3040d ago
This is Kore-eda at his very best, facing up to the hardest truths with honesty and a nervous laugh — uncomfortable, invigorating, and ultimately cleansing, like the cinema’s equivalent of a cold shower. And I mean that in the best way possible.
3040d ago
Mr. Kore-eda, whose most noteworthy family dramas include “Still Walking” (2009) and “Like Father, Like Son” (2014), works in a quiet cinematic register, and the slightest error in tone could upend the whole enterprise. Slow-paced, sad, rueful and sometimes warmly funny, After the Storm is one of his sturdiest, and most sensitive, constructions.
3040d ago
A divorced father tries to put his family back together in director Kore-eda Hirokazu’s family tale.
3040d ago
Hirokazu Kore-eda has drawn comparisons to Yasujiro Ozu in the way he’s not as interested in major plot twists or set pieces as he is subtle human emotion, typically hinging on family dynamics.
3040d ago
Hirokazu Kore-eda’s new drama asks why dreamers don’t fulfill their dreams.
3040d ago
“A stew needs time for the flavors to sink in; so do people,” observes the sage matriarch of “After the Storm.”
3040d ago
After the Storm is a family drama of supreme subtlety.
3040d ago
“Why can’t men love in the present?” wonders grandmother Yoshiko at one point. And Ryoto, trapped by his own arrested development, is certainly a great example of a decent man whose idea of himself at some point eclipsed his devotion to his family, and he lost them, without even really noticing it was happening.
3040d ago
Hirokazu Koreeda’s After The Storm is a breezy portrait of a sore loser.
3040d ago
The stock character types that Kore-eda employs across the board are pretty much open books from the start.
