After Yang Reviews
Boston Globe
Mark Feeney
The movie's like a set of wind chimes with hardly any wind.
Entertainment Weekly
Leah Greenblatt
Like its muse, the movie feels a little like a black-box experiment, one that can be both frustratingly opaque and achingly lovely: a still-waters mystery whose ripples, even up to the last frame, only hint at what lies beneath.
Associated Press
Jake Coyle
After Yang may not reach the heights it's seeking, but it's easy to respect it for trying to tackle profound questions and reach a register of high-minded reflection.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Whatever the future of filmmaking looks like, Kogonada has a place in it.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Thoughtful and nicely unsettling, sci-fi film finds meaning in the memories of an automated companion.
The Reveal (Substack)
Scott Tobias
Whether Kogonada intended it or not, After Yang plays like a profound film for the glass-half-full atheist, suggesting not only the preciousness and importance of life, but the ways in which it continues after our systems crash.
Filmspotting
Adam Kempenaar
The editing - which is also Koganada - offers wonderful elisions and punctuations that add compelling elements and draw you in without changing the gentleness of this film.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Alison Willmore
After Yang is an almost painfully tender movie about the life and death of a robot, but it's also about what life and death mean to a technological being and a human one.
Chicago Reader
Maxwell Rabb
Director Kogonada's sophomore film explores a subtly futuristic world where artificial intelligence is commonplace.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Christy Lemire
[Director Kogonada] finds a tonal balance that's really difficult between being profound about the nature of existence, but also light and wispy and wistful at the same time.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
Check the cynicism for a second, however, and you start to realize that the main question here is not, "What does it mean to be human?" or "Do androids dream of electronic afterlives?" but "Why, exactly, am I crying so hard?"
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
There's more to this quest than might appear because along the way Kogonada is upending the noxious stereotype of the "stoic" Asian, a familiar cliché, including in science fiction.
BuzzFeed News
Sandi Rankaduwa
It's an emotional slow burn, feeling almost like a guided meditation. You need to be in the mood for it, but you might just love where it takes you...
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
Farrell will break your heart...the talented Irishman plays a forlorn father investigating his family's malfunctioning robot helper in Kogonada's latest.
TIME Magazine
Stephanie Zacharek
At the end, you may feel you've just seen a movie that somehow holds elusive answers to some of the bigger questions in life, even though nothing is spelled out too broadly.
(All (Parentheses))
Keith Uhlich
Much too 'Instagram Stories: The Motion Picture' for my taste.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
After Yang will resonate with anyone who has absorbed such emptiness into themselves, and found some comfort there.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
In a tale that touches on such a diversity of subjects -- loneliness, mortality, adoption, family ties, the realm of the senses, artificial intelligence -- it's the ineffable things that count.
New Yorker
Richard Brody
"After Yang" shows how easily the taste for beauty can be tainted, subverted, distorted, and abused by the powers that be.
Observer
Emily Zemler
The slight story unfurls with precision, slowly unrolling in way that allows the emotion of the scenes to creep in. It's like watching a butterfly land on your fingertips, briefly, and then flutter away, leaving traces of itself on your hand.
