David Opie indieWire This often quiet, thoughtful story of a man who’s incomplete reminds us to keep fighting for the part that’s missing, whether that be striving for change or even just existing to fight another day. Rated: B+ Sep 16, 2024 Full Review Catherine Bray Variety At its best, the storytelling here is highly skilled, gradually peeling back the layers to give a lived-in feel to the slow-motion car crash that has derailed Jay’s life. Sep 13, 2024 Full Review Paul Emmanuel Enicola The Asian Cut Senez uses a deglamorized Tokyo as the backdrop to great effect, allowing the city to emerge as a character in its own right. Rated: 4/5 Sep 14, 2024 Full Review Louis Roberts Loud and Clear Reviews This is incisive filmmaking with a beating human heart. Rated: 4/5 Sep 13, 2024 Full Review Abe Friedtanzer Cinema Daily US This drama is an affirming and occasionally uplifting look at a fleeting chance at something that feels impossible with a magnetic lead character to anchor its poignant story.
