Pieter-Jan Van Haecke Psychocinematography By avoiding to deliver a slightly reworked version of a hero’s growth, Kumakiri does not only deliver a less predictable sports-narrative, but also proves that the sport-genre can be a frame to explore a myriad of darker psychological themes. Mar 24, 2025 Full Review MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher [A] bit overwrought at times and doesn't quite have enough meat to justify its 125-minute runtime, [but] director Kazuyoshi Kumakiri ... does find some small, delightful surprises... Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 29, 2017 Full Review Mark Schilling Japan Times Mukoku has the feel of a last hurrah for the supokon genre, but the jidaigeki will never die as long as there is a Japan.
