...'Oppe på valmuebakken' [giver] et dejligt, men til tider dog også lidt sentimentalt, indblik i Japan anno 1963, der dog hovedsageligt underholder med sit indlejrede familiemysterium.

Hayao Miyazaki's søn Goro's nok bedste film, hvilket måske ikke siger så meget. Men seværdig nok.

...Miyazakis streg klæder filmen bedårende godt, og Ghibli lykkes med sit forsøg i den realistiske genre. Man kan ligefrem dufte forårsforelskelsen og valmuerne i farvefloret.
