Loved this movie, made me laugh, made me cry. It was great

An amazing movie,very moving and starkly shows the difference between cultures on their attitude towards respect for the dead.

This movie was everything a good movie should be. It was deeply moving, there were many tears but it was also a story of hope and there is nothing more beautiful than the sound of a cello.

A beautiful and sensitive movie. My partner and I were both very moved by it - several times to tears!

Fascinating movie - oddly serene and relaxing. Interesting subject matter which is treated carefully and with great dignity, but has the occasional lighter moment too. Beautifully done all round.

Unique take on a ritual of Japanese culture not easily translatable into the western world. Must watch.

we enjoyed this movie. An interesting insight into how the Japanese manage the funeral process. it was sad , happy, moving. I would recommend seeing this.

We enjoyed this film so much. I am at a loss for words really. I have just read all the previous reviews, and I can only say I agree with all of them. This film is a must see, and I would watch it over and over again. Just stunning!
