      Jessica Kiang The Playlist Neither a convincing parable of self-empowerment, nor the kind of ripe ethics drama that really involves itself in the moral ramifications of its characters' actions, "Pale Moon" is, a wan drama, drained to the point of bloodlessness. Rated: C May 16, 2015 Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse Pale Moon is a wonderful film, and one that points to the path Japanese mainstream cinema must take in order to evolve and get over the stalemate it is currently in. Jul 26, 2020 Full Review Edmund Lee South China Morning Post An absorbing tale of crime and non-punishment set after the bursting of Japan's bubble economy. Rated: 3.5/5 Apr 2, 2016 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Flawless central performances and a cool, observational approach from director Yoshida imbue it with a quiet power. Rated: 4.5/5 Feb 23, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews
