“All the Hollywood directors producing one comic-book sequel after the other (and all other directors as well) should see this film, they should turn away in shame, and quit directing. Movie is largely seen as a medium to entertain, yet it could be so much more.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWatching this movie, in every scene, it is incomprehensible for a western viewer how it is filmed: There are only daily life scenes, nothing dramatic, yet it is such a heart-warming experience, a simple joy of watching people living their lives.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe story follows 3 very different grown-up sisters who live independently in a big house. The father has left them when they were little, and now they learn that they yet have another little sister. Soon their little dormitory has an additional guest. The main characters are the youngest sister who tries to adapt to her new life, and the oldest sister who is determined to live her life lead by strength and kindness.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eCritics have compared Kore-eda with Ozu, because of his calm observation of life. Still, Ozuu0026#39;s films contain great sadness, while Kore-edau0026#39;s movies (u0026#39;Like Father,Like Sonu0026#39;, u0026#39;Kisekiu0026#39;) are full of hope and joy for living. They show simple people trying to find happiness in life. It has a Zen-like quality: one doesnu0026#39;t need big dramatic events to show love and kindness, if you are looking close enough you will find it in the most ordinary things in daily life.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is one of the best movies Iu0026#39;ve ever seen.”
