Memories of Tomorrow Ratings & Reviews
Behind The Lens
Debbie Lynn Elias
Already an award winner, Memories of Tomorrow is one of my Must See Films of the Year. There won't be a dry eye in the house.
TheMovieReport.com
Michael Dequina
Ken Watanabe makes his character's whirlwind of fear, anger, and defeat painfully immediate.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Memories of Tomorrow is the first movie I've seen about the disease that is told from the sick person's point of view.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Watanabe brings ferocious commitment to the sort of role that many an American awards body has been known to champion.
Los Angeles CityBeat
Andy Klein
This would be a totally manipulative disease-of-the-week movie, were it not for Tsutsumi's gentle direction and Watanabe's intense performance.
Los Angeles Times
Dennis Lim
The script's subtler nuances are too often drowned out by awkward histrionics.
Los Angeles Daily News
Glenn Whipp
Tear jerking comes with the territory, but the filmmakers generally rise above formula, particularly in its depiction of the central marriage.
L.A. Weekly
Ella Taylor
This heartfelt tale of disintegration and acceptance, seasoned with family devotion, will both raise and soothe the anxieties of those of us who regularly ask ourselves why we came into the kitchen two minutes ago.
Spirituality & Practice
Mary Ann Brussat
A Japanese film that draws out our respect and compassion for a man whose life is turned upside down by the early onset of Alzheimer's.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
Veers regularly into disease-of-the-week territory but is rescued by the powerhouse performances of Ken Watanabe and Kanako Higuchi.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Sensitively directed by Yukihiko Tsutsumi from a well-constructed script.
Variety
Russell Edwards
An outstanding perf and a methodically constructed script about the early onset of Alzheimer's disease makes Japanese meller Memories of Tomorrow an emotionally gripping experience.
Village Voice
Charles Petersen
Of course, it's no surprise that a melodrama would be melodramatic. But that doesn't mean it has to be graceless, and grace, that virtue most characteristic of Japanese film, is what Memories of Tomorrow completely lacks.
