「Japan's Burning Tire Pit of Adolescence」怪物　Dan Knightonさんの映画レビュー（感想・評価）

Just what Japan needs: another film to show the hardship of raising a child as a single-mother. Koreeda as one of Japan's best auteurs of the moment shows a perceptible disparagement to public education admins, perhaps something audiences understand all too well. The strongest point is the emotionally hypnotic soundtrack by Ryuichi Sakamoto, his final before his death prior to the film's release.
