- Excerpt: Kaurismäki es un gusto adquirido y tal vez por eso, por esa constancia estética y temática de su filmografía (eso que llamamos estilo) en una carrera que ya pasó los 40 años, una película como “Hojas de otoño”, simple al extremo, pero precisa y efectiva en sus mecanismos narrativos, ha sido recibida con tanto alborozo.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: With “Fallen Leaves,” Kaurismäki exhibits a heightened mastery of tone, his film at once funny and deadly serious and one of his best.

- Excerpt: Aki Kaurismäki has created the year’s driest romantic comedy with FALLEN LEAVES: a slow-building love affair [with] an acerbic wit that has the slyest of grins coming across as belly laughs
