Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse Jul 26, 2020
Despite some positive elements here and there, "Tokyo Eyes" is a rather faulty film, which becomes very difficult to follow very soon. Go to Full Review
Chuck Rudolph Matinee Magazine Feb 4, 2002

Less a crime flick than another disjointed thesis on unsettled, alienated youth. Go to Full Review
Daniel Eagan Film Journal International Feb 2, 2002
The film's calm, quiet tone and outsider's point of view give unexpected depth to what ends up a slender but enjoyable story. Go to Full Review

May 27, 2009 Immersion in an anonymous Tôkyô, a labyrinth of small streets, a sweet romantic story. Let yourself go into this innocent and fresh romance ! A movie for open-minded tôkyô's fans ! See more Apr 26, 2009 French-Japanese production with nice camera work and plot and a cool soundtrack. The final scene is memorable. Kitanos appearance is very short and I am not sure whether his character really was significant for the movie after all. I can understand why people argue about whether the performances of the actors were good or not: I decided to like them. K's movements gave the film a unique vibe and Hinanos childish behavior and voice were in my opinion genuinely(!) adorable (- which is very hard to achieve with the stereotypical role of the Japanese high-school girl). See more Apr 15, 2009 Interesting premise, but the film never delivers any of the social commentary it tries to inject. Not a bad effort, but hardly memorable. The stars are mostly for Kitano's cameo as, you guess it, a low-rank yakuza. See more Apr 10, 2009 This movie seems scary but it is actually pretty sweet. See more Feb 20, 2009 a decent Japanese drama. See more Aug 12, 2008 Stylish Vigilante Flick. Romantic Sub-plot. Darkly Humorous & Enjoyable Viewing. See more Read all reviews
