Let's just flatly say: Kogonada is a genius.

Times (UK)

... A mature, melancholic meditation on the odd transitional phase that humanity faces today — not quite fully digital, not nearly human enough.

Rated: 4/5

Observer (UK)

I’m not convinced that the picture carries quite the philosophical weight that it thinks it does. Still, it’s an undeniably gorgeous place to lose yourself for a while.

Rated: 3/5

Cinefilia

It has a minimalist appearance that, with tight aesthetics, Kogonada manages from the surface to interrogate adoption, loss and artificial intelligence from the family nucleus, but it remains in an epicenter of routine situations. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 6/10

There's something shockingly beautiful in Kogonada's film. After Yang is a visual feast. While it has a narrative pull, it is so much more about the feelings the images invoke about being human.

If a family buys an alleged member with the belief that this purchase exists only to serve them, then is that member enslaved? The film echoes Antebellum slaveholder sentiments of treating the enslaved as family

Will not be for everyone, but for those willing to put the time into this somber and ruminative experience there's a lot of reward at the end.

Despite the good performances I think the movie's musings on A.I. are pretty well worn territory and the instagramable/NPR approved vision of the future feels toothless.
