On its face, Jiro Dreams of Sushi sounds like the kind of movie you may have trouble convincing others to watch: A documentary that follows 85-year-old Jiro Ono making sushi at a 10-seat restaurant in a Tokyo subway station. Hmm. But when you add the fact that the restaurant is Michelin-starred, and that Jiro has two sons trying to fulfill their father’s legacy, suddenly things become a lot more interesting. It doesn’t hurt that Jiro himself is charming and that the documentary allows us a lo...

Written and directed by Sofia Coppola, Lost in Translation walks a line between comedy and drama, light and dark. With a bustling Tokyo as its backdrop, the film stars Scarlett Johansson as Charlotte, a young wife on location with her photographer husband, and Bill Murray as Bob Harris, a past-his-prime movie star bored in his own marriage. In between Bob’s commitments shooting an ad for Suntory whiskey, the two gallivant around the city, singing karaoke at Karaoke-Kan in Shibuya and eating s...

I saw Shoplifters right when it arrived in U.S. theaters, so intrigued was I by both its promise (to shed light on an oft-overlooked side of the city) and its premise (a family lives in poverty on the outskirts of Tokyo and uses shoplifting to get by, but becomes entangled in the disappearance of a young girl). The film won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival, the first Japanese film to win the accolade since 1997, and it was a 2019 finalist for Best Foreign Language Film at the 91st A...

The secretive yakuza, or Japanese organized crime organization, is the object of seemingly endless fascination. In Kill Bill: Volume 1, they’re given some screen time, even if that screen time is packed with more blood and gore than is comfortable to stomach. The crime bosses feature heavily in the movie’s fantastical fight scene at the Showdown at the House of Blue Leaves: Here, former assassin Beatrix Kiddo (Uma Thurman) swiftly dispatches the personal army of O-Ren Ishii, the so-called Que...

Before Akira became an essential part of any anime collection, it started as a serialized manga (Japanese comic) in 1982 and was later compiled into seven lengthy graphic novels. The manga author also wrote and directed this film adaptation, resulting in a two-hour movie that’s very heavy but very close to the source material. Set in 2019, the narrative manages to be both dystopian fiction and prophecy, depicting a Tokyo that survived WWIII in 1988 and is attempting to host the 2020 Olympics....

This animated teen-centric tale takes the “star-crossed lovers” trope more literally than most romances, following two high school students who have never met but find themselves switching bodies after a celestial event that only takes place every 1,200 years. Japanophiles will swoon over the meticulously drawn scenery: lanterns illuminating the last night of an autumn festival in a rural town, the JR Yamanote train pulling out of Tokyo’s Shinjuku Station, popular cafés serving up soufflé pan...

Set in struggling, postwar Tokyo, this movie offers a compelling version of the idea that a cop and a killer can be two sides of the same coin. Toshiro Mifune plays a young detective whose gun has been stolen and used in a murder. He is determined to get it back, and that search takes him to black markets in the city’s tough underworld. Directed by Akira Kurosawa.—Pat Tompkins, Copy editor

Some writers live bland, desk-bound lives. Not novelist and playwright Yukio Mishima. One of the four parts of this film—Art, Action, Beauty, Harmony of Pen and Sword—draws from his acclaimed quartet, The Sea of Fertility, his final masterpiece. Another focuses on his final act: committing seppuku (ritual suicide) in 1970 at age 45. Paul Schrader wrote and directed this look at a man fueled by dark obsessions.—P.T.

Tokyo is a magnet for foodies, and the Japanese interest in what they eat gets a wild, satirical treatment in this rom-com. A truck driver arrives at a modest noodle shop one day and decides to teach the widowed chef, Tampopo (or Dandelion) how to be a better cook. The chef, played by Nobuko Miyamoto, was the real-life wife of the director, Juzo Itami, and starred in several of his other films, including A Taxing Woman.—P.T.

When bureaucrat Kanji Watanabe (played by Takashi Shimura) learns he has only a few months before cancer will end his life, he tries to figure out how to spend his limited time. He has just been going through the motions at work for decades. Ikiru means “to live.” How can he best do that? Director Akira Kurosawa featured Shimura in numerous other films, including The Seven Samurai, The Bad Sleep Well, and Stray Dog.—P.T.
