Call Me Chihiro Ratings & Reviews
Psychocinematography
Pieter-Jan Van Haecke
While Call Me Chihiro can not be counted among Imaizumi's best, he still delivers an engaging exploration of the subjective struggle to escape loneliness.
Asian Movie Pulse
Panos Kotzathanasis
A touching and meaningful movie that is well worth watching for its exploration of human connections and the power of forming deep relationships outside of blood ties, as much as a masterclass on how to adapt manga on the big screen.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A slow-paced humanitarian film, showing the values of family life and of having compassion as highly valued traits.
In Review Online
Fred Barrett
As far as Netflix originals go, one could do a lot worse than this warm-hearted, empathetic, and yes, occasionally uneventful and saccharine slice-of-life drama.
Common Sense Media
Brian Costello
Yes, the "sex worker with a heart of gold" story is as old as time, but this variation on the theme comes across as wholly original.
Decider
John Serba
The film's airiness can be both comforting and frustrating; sometimes Imaizumi seems to be aiming for profound reticence, and lands on inertness. But the breezy tone isn't insubstantial...
But Why Tho? A Geek Community
Sarah Musnicky
...While it takes too long to get to the emotionally resonant third act, Call Me Chihiro has a subtle power to its delivery that will linger after the credits roll.
