Review of Noriko's Dinner Table (2005) by Matt Zoller Seitz for New York Times — 12 Jun 2007
This 159-minute feature doesn't quite cohere. Mr. Sono's direction is haphazard; he oversells the first half's whimsical touches and the second half's spiral-of-doom emoting. Still, the movie is worth seeing, if only to experience a small story with impossibly grand ambitions.
