Yoon C. gave it a 7:
Kurosawa made his last movie with the gentle doting care of a grandparent. Certain traits of artists loom larger in the later stages of their career, and Kurosawa always had a sentimental streak; Madadayo is one movie where we can readily forgive the old master for his taste for sweets.
