Katie Rife AV Club 10/27/2017
Japanese Girls Never Die is an impressionistic, kaleidoscopic portrait of life as a woman in modern-day Japan, with a little bit of art-world satire to boot. Go to Full Review Kristy Puchko Nerdist 07/21/2017
4/5
Blending magic realism, pop art moxie, and humane storytelling, director Daigo Matsui delivers a dreamy feminist critique of modern Japanese culture. Go to Full Review Jessica Kiang Variety 11/30/2016
This vibrant, energetic film simultaneously manages to be pop-art, edgy social critique, and a strangely moving prayer for all the gone girls. Go to Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film 07/21/2017
4/5
This isn't simply a call for revolution, with female characters also troubled by the violence of the gangs, but it's an invitation to do some serious thinking, and it's presented with energy and style. Go to Full Review Meredith Borders Birth.Movies.Death. 07/17/2017
Gorgeous and thoughtful, at first impressionistic in its series of vignettes until the pieces join together to form a very compelling whole. Go to Full Review Mark Schilling Japan Times 11/30/2016
