 "Hashiguchi vividly captures the way young Japanese live now, chafing against their culture's manic mix of millennial brusqueness and undying, traditional politesse."
-- David Noh, FILM JOURNAL INTERNATIONAL
"Hashiguchi uses the situation to evoke a Japan bustling atop an undercurrent of loneliness and isolation."
-- Ernest Hardy, L.A. WEEKLY
 "What might've been an exhilarating exploration of an odd love triangle becomes a sprawl of uncoordinated vectors."
-- Mark Athitakis, FILMCRITIC.COM
"Though it breaks no new ground, it's quietly funny and moving, a welcome change of pace from the norm."
-- E! ONLINE

"Hashiguchi covers this territory with wit and originality, suggesting that with his fourth feature -- the first to be released in the U.S. -- a major director is emerging in world cinema."
-- Kevin Thomas, LOS ANGELES TIMES
"Although the editing might have been tighter, Hush! sympathetically captures the often futile lifestyle of young people in modern Japan."
-- V.A. Musetto, NEW YORK POST
"Hashiguchi ... enriches his rendition with melancholic ambivalence, sociological specificity, and a knack for delicate epiphany."
-- Dennis Lim, VILLAGE VOICE
"If the incidents are piled on one another without adding up to much, they provide telling social details."
-- Stephen Holden, NEW YORK TIMES
"Starts promisingly but disintegrates into a dreary, humorless soap opera."
-- Edward Guthmann, SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE
"A feel-good movie that doesn't give you enough to feel good about."
-- Owen Gleiberman, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
