Reviews

  • "Shoji paints a picture of a tense, tragic world from which there’s seemingly no escape, and the emotional toll it takes on those lost in it."
    Clint Worthington, RogerEbert.com
  • "“Tatsumi” is gritty, tense, brutally realistic and an overall great film."
    Panos Kotzathanasis, Asian Movie Pulse
  • "Tatsumi is a diamond in the rough, in many ways a masculine classic with a pumping heart...."
    Kurt Halfyard, Screen Anarchy
  • "Making good use of slow dissolves, Shoji revels in a retro aesthetic in a tale of moral compromise and redemption...."
    Hayley Scanlon, Windows on Worlds
