Alex Doenau Trespass Cuteness and jauntiness can only go so far if there's no substance backing them up. My Uncle, a Japanese film with a name suggestive of a much loved, much older French film, is that insubstantial film. Nov 30, 2017 Full Review James Marsh South China Morning Post My Uncle is a typically heart-warming affair, anchored by strong performances from Ryuhei Matsuda and young Riku Ohnishi. Rated: 3/5 Aug 8, 2017 Full Review Mark Schilling Japan Times The film's focus stays where it belongs, on Uncle and Yukio, the sort of pairing rare in Japanese films and often cringe-inducing anywhere. Rated: 3/5 Oct 26, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews
