The Third Murder is shot mostly through panes of prison glass. In tackling the weighty subject of Japan's death penalty, the director imbues his meditative mystery with a distinctly icy chill.

Rating: C+ --
"The Third Murder" features a handful of compelling performances, but winds up tied in knots.

Detroit News
Kore-eda is too polished a filmmaker for "The Third Murder" not to be of interest, but its focus is finally too fuzzy to compel the way the best of the director's work does.

Los Angeles Times
The Japanese filmmaker Hirokazu Kore-eda has a quietly seductive way of finding the sublime in the mundane.

Rating: 3.5/4 --
Murder is endlessly fascinating, as the vast crime-fiction industry would indicate, and this one is no different.

Seattle Times
Eschewing the snappy edit typical of the thriller genre in favour of a dialogue-driven narrative, The Third Murder is a legal procedural with a difference; deliberate pacing requires full attention, creating an engrossing experience.

Product Description:
Japanese attorney Tomoaki Shigemori (Masaharu Fukuyama) is assigned to defend a criminal named Misumi (Koji Yakusho). Previously convicted of double murder 30 years ago, Misumi is now accused of killing his boss after his release from prison. Though he initially confesses to the charges, his story keeps changing and there are no witnesses, only his ever-changing account of what happened. Shigemori gets drawn into the psychological game Misumi is playing while attempting to defend his client and discover the real story. Written and directed by Hirokazu Koreeda.
