Breath Ratings & Reviews
MUBI
Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
Breath is more or less pointless-and yet, it's the Kim film I like the most because, paradoxically, it coheres the least.
Seattle Times
Nick Visser
The cinematography is wonderful, but the plot is too vague. There could be a message here, but it's buried too deep to dig out.
NewsBlaze
Prairie Miller
A surreal convergence of sex, death and erotically charged assisted suicide via asphyxiation, and the weird way that a female object of desire can take your breath away, in more ways than one.
Reel.com
Rudy Joggerst
...a tender romance between a dejected housewife and a mute death-row prisoner that is surprisingly compassionate and even offers up a few moments of comic relief.
The Hollywood Reporter
Ray Bennett
[Director Ki-duk] creates some startling images within the curious logic of his tale. It has something to do with inhaling badness and exhaling goodness but those expecting it to make sense shouldn't exactly hold their breath.

Emanuel Levy
This story of a disenfranchised woman represents a step-down for the gifted South Korean helmer Kim Ki-Duk in an uneven film in which the parts are more interesting than the whole.
Variety
Derek Elley
A typically quirky chamber drama by helmer Kim Ki-duk.
