I have yet to be let down by a film from Koreeda and if you have seen some of his works you will know what to expect. It's an interesting contrast of two families and their ways of raising a child. The dilemma of switching your child or not is rather complex and interesting to watch. The whole story is supported by competent direction and great acting. What more do you want?

Koreeda celebrates the gut wrenching aftermath of a mishap like this on a family with restraint, nuance to its realization that choosing your family is perhaps the sweetest of all human connections.

Hirokazu Koreeda's work has been recommended to me by a few people, and I'm ashamed to say this is the first of his movies I have seen. Based on 'Like Father, Like Son' I am now in a rush to see a few more. It is an excellent film that deals with raw human emotion. But the genius is More
