Tampopo Ratings & Reviews
- Spanktacular23 marca 2025If you love food, you must see this movie.
- TomK_BE29 listopada 2025The 2015 Blu-ray remaster makes Juzo Itami’s “ramen western” shine. A widow’s quest to perfect her ramen blends heartfelt comedy with absurd food vignettes, all delivered in crisp, vibrant detail. Verdict: A deliciously funny classic. 🍜
- nebrallim7 listopada 2025Wes Anderson of Japan... Great screenplay, choreography and direction! Enjoyable and funny at times, if you understand the cultural references. Offbeat and quirky, a little overexagerated to keep it light and humerous. Journey through the interesting ways good food affects us all. Will definitely be watching more of Itami's films.
