Pieter-Jan Van Haecke Psychocinematography Nanako Hirose reveals the abundance of potential she has, a potential that will surely come to full realization in her future cinematographical narratives. Aug 23, 2020 Full Review James Marsh South China Morning Post Frequently mistaking emptiness for poignancy, obfuscation for complexity, His Lost Name is a gruelling ordeal, utterly devoid of meaningful symbolism or subtext. Rated: 0.5/5 Apr 24, 2019 Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse "His Lost Name" does not manage to stand out (not much at least) from the plethora of similar films released in Japan, but still remains a hopeful debut, and a film that will satisfy most fans of the Japanese contemporary drama. Feb 20, 2019 Full Review James Hadfield Japan Times It's just a shame that Hirose's tale of mutually assured deception never seems to get out of second gear. A story this juicy shouldn't leave you feeling only half full. Rated: 3/5 Jan 10, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
