- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Brando gives a superb performance which ranges from humorous to inarticulate to deadly serious."
-
"Truly this is a provocative feature to come to the screen as an example of Joshua Logan's direction, the writing of James Michener, and performances of the cast headed by Marlon Brando."
-
"Brando has to pretend to take the situation seriously, and it plainly bores him."
-
"In spite of its flaws... the film is an arresting one."
-
"Sayonara is a beautifully photographed bore."
