Critics Consensus

Broker skirts the edges of sentimentality, but is consistently grounded by Kore-eda Hirokazu's warm, tenderly melancholic approach.

4/5

Hirokazu Kore-eda's story about two baby brokers and a sex worker is a sensitive, oddball, often surprisingly funny family road movie.

The film is also suffused with humour as the members of this odd family gradually become closer. There are some lovely, delicately handled scenes, the type of scene at which this director is adept.

4/5

Screenwriters are always told to simplify and clarify: Hirokazu doesn’t hold with such rules. His films get stranger and more beautiful as they go.

It’s a surprisingly deeper and thematically richer film than expected.

Broker is a beautiful film that gives no answers to the big questions, only offers, and expects, an empathetic response.
