Critic Reviews for Pale Moon

All Critics (4) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (3) | Rotten (1)

  • Neither a convincing parable of self-empowerment, nor the kind of ripe ethics drama that really involves itself in the moral ramifications of its characters' actions, "Pale Moon" is, a wan drama, drained to the point of bloodlessness.

  • Pale Moon is a wonderful film, and one that points to the path Japanese mainstream cinema must take in order to evolve and get over the stalemate it is currently in.

    Panos Kotzathanasis

    Asian Movie Pulse

  • An absorbing tale of crime and non-punishment set after the bursting of Japan's bubble economy.

    Edmund Lee

    South China Morning Post

  • Flawless central performances and a cool, observational approach from director Yoshida imbue it with a quiet power.
