Reception
Ben Sachs of 'Chicago Reader' called 'Hospitalit' a "charming comedy", while Chris Cabin of 'Slant Magazine' called it "Essentially timeless".
Maggie Lee of 'The Hollywood Reporter' said that the film is "bizarre" and compared disguised Japanese xenophobia as a "house intruder" motif to that of Yoshimitsu Morita's 'Family Game' and Max Frisch's play 'The Fire Raisers'.
Ronnie Scheib of 'Variety' was quoted saying that "[the film] maintains a marvelous tension between a prim comedy of manners and unbridled slapstick".
