Reception
Critical Reception
Mark Shilling of The Japan Times gave the film a rating of 2.5 stars out of a total of 5 stars.[1] He praised actor Jonathan Sherr as "miles above the usual foreign actor in Japanese films, meaning he is not totally embarrassing to watch." but added that when he is "required to show something deeper than affability, he is lost".[1] The Hollywood Reporter and Variety also gave the film an average review.[2][3]
