Most important, Hush! is like Chinese director Stanley Kwan's recent "Lan Yu" in that a gay romance becomes but a starting point for an all-encompassing view of human behavior.
Hush! takes an excessive, saga-like running time to reach its conclusion, but Hashiguchi frequently makes the trudge worthwhile, particularly when he finds the energy to match his three leads' charming performances.
A sweet and surprisingly unconventional look at the changing definition of family in contemporary Japan.
Overlong but telling look at three young misfits.
Rambling, occasionally very funny reflection on the meaning of family in contemporary Japan.
Meandering melodrama about gay relationships, friendship, loneliness and the elastic notion of family is considerably overlong and hampered by too many superfluous scenes.
A feel-good movie that doesn't give you enough to feel good about.
