      V.A. Musetto New York Post Rated: 3/4 Nov 13, 2001 Full Review Lawrence Van Gelder New York Times Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 13, 2001 Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse Despite some positive elements here and there, "Tokyo Eyes" is a rather faulty film, which becomes very difficult to follow very soon. Jul 26, 2020 Full Review Chuck Rudolph Matinee Magazine Less a crime flick than another disjointed thesis on unsettled, alienated youth. Rated: B- Feb 4, 2002 Full Review Daniel Eagan Film Journal International The film's calm, quiet tone and outsider's point of view give unexpected depth to what ends up a slender but enjoyable story.

      Audience Member 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 ! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member 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). Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member 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. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie seems scary but it is actually pretty sweet. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member a decent Japanese drama. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Stylish Vigilante Flick. Romantic Sub-plot. Darkly Humorous & Enjoyable Viewing. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
