Minari - Reviews

It is a classic immigrant story with specific, often unique new details.

...a wonderfully absorbing and moving family drama with a buttery, sunlit streak of sentimentality.

It’s a delicately told tale, quietly engaging us with the day-to-day minutiae of the family without coercing them into a more traditionally dramatic structure.

...boosted by terrific performances, glowing visuals and a wonderful musical score.

...there is [a] truth imprinted on the scenes of familial life. A lightness of touch that feels like tenderness, the kind rendered from the most dog-eared of memories.

...excellent drama...

...the most American film in years.

...the sublime and soulful semiautobiographical drama from Lee Isaac Chung...

This gorgeous semi-memoir filters the ragged glory of the American Dream through a family of South Korean immigrant farmers.

...soulful...

...a gentle, sweet, and yet staggeringly powerful story of assimilating into the American Dream.

...a caring, thoughtful, personal look into one family’s American dream.

...a witty and wise period piece.

Lee Isaac Chung’s tender story is a finely-observed portrait of family relations and rural American values.

...lägger sig till vila i själen och stannar där långt efter det att eftertexterna har rullat förbi.
