Return to Seoul - Reviews

...a shark-like adoption drama that its 25-year-old heroine wears like an extra layer of skin or sharp cartilage.

In her assured film debut as Freddie, Park holds your rapt attention. She is, as they say, a natural.

Absorbing and emotional....

Stirring, constantly surprising stuff — with an arresting debut turn from Ji-Min Park.

A nimble investigation into identity.

...an uneasy exploration of the concept of home and the heartache of losing it, following an imperfect heroine on her emotional journey to find a home in herself.

...Return to Seoul’s commitment to staying in the moment creates an engrossing cinematic experience, an inextricable character portrait both intimate and fathomless.

Davy Chou’s bittersweet comedy of a Korean adoptee searching for her biological parents is powered by a dazzling lead performance.

Skakande och trovärdigt.

En imponerande visuell kraft gör ”Tillbaka till Seoul” sevärd...

Varje ansikte och varje miljö är visserligen vägd på guldvåg, men utan filmdebuterande Park Ji-min i huvudrollen hade det inte gått.

...en av de starkaste filmerna årtiondet har erbjudit än så länge.
