An inspirational opportunity to highlight the strengths of short-form animation. Go to Full Review Richard Whittaker Austin Chronicle 01/10/2019
3/5
The writer/directors all give something unique - both visually and from a storytelling viewpoint - and that's a bold and heartening sign for Ponoc's future. Go to Full Review Rachel Wagner Rotoscopers 01/14/2019
2.25/5
Unfortunately like Mary and the Witch's Flower the film doesn't quite live up to the great potential the studio offers. It's a harmless grouping of shorts but one that will soon be forgotten Go to Full Review Rob Thomas Capital Times (Madison, WI) 01/10/2019
3/4
As a chance to see some of Japan's finest up-and-coming animators at work, good things come in small packages. Go to Full Review Toussaint Egan Paste Magazine 01/10/2019
Modest Heroes is a satisfying sophomore effort from Studio Ponoc, a collection of shorts that, together, resonate with the sentiment of that most joyous and courageous of adages made famous by the likes of Rod Serling. Go to Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film 12/03/2018

Jessica C 04/11/2020 Unfortunately, I didn't like this movie (or better yet, collection of short films) at all. Not because the visuals were bad, it's just that the stories didn't keep me entertained. Nothing too remarkable either, I'm afraid. See more spencer p @s_plewe 01/20/2019 An almost-buttery smooth blend of different stories, styles, and tones that clearly and confidently show that Studio Ponoc has more storytelling potential in store for the future than one would have anticipated. See more 01/13/2019 I paid $$$ to watch a story, get invested into the characters lives; instead i get three short films 20 mins each that have no correlation to each other and the first film only had about 5 words spoken in it. This is more of an artwork that belongs in a museum, not a movie theater. See more Read all reviews
