- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Treating his seafood substantially better than Oldboy, Jiro is a miracle of perfectionism married to expertise. The same can said for Gelb's loving documentary."
-
"Overall, this is a pleasant and often enlightening journey."
-
"'Jiro Dreams of Sushi' is as elegant and tasty as the splendid sushi prepared by the man in the title, and that is saying a lot"
