A Silent Voice (2016) Reviews: What Critics Said
Critics praised A Silent Voice as a tender, visually inventive drama about bullying, guilt and redemption, though several found its condensed manga plot crowded and its deaf heroine too passive.
Most critics say yes: A Silent Voice is a moving, carefully animated study of guilt and friendship, though its busy plot and shifting tone kept some at a distance. This is a roundup of published reviews; Celluloid has not rated it.
