Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: C --
A feel-good movie that doesn't give you enough to feel good about.
Entertainment Weekly
Hashiguchi ... enriches his rendition with melancholic ambivalence, sociological specificity, and a knack for delicate epiphany.
Village Voice
Rating: 4/5 --
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.

Rating: 1/4 --
Starts promisingly but disintegrates into a dreary, humorless soap opera.

San Francisco Chronicle
Rating: 3.5/5 --
While not quite a comedy, the film tackles its relatively serious subject with an open mind and considerable good cheer, and is never less than engaging.
TV Guide
Be patient with the lovely Hush! and your reward will be a thoughtful, emotional movie experience.

...In this absorbing film Hashiguchi moves from the sly to the profound with ease and assurance...

Product Description:
In this Japanese comedy from director Ryosuke Hashiguchi, a closeted gay man named Katsuhiro (Seiichi Tanabe) meets his match in outgoing Nayoa (Kazuya Takahashi), and the two seemingly opposite men fall in love. When the couple are approached by a sad woman (Reiko Kataoka) who wants them to help her have a baby, and their disapproving parents try to break up the relationship, all involved are challenged to redefine the true meaning of family.
