This may be his best film yet (not seen Cocoon). I certainly agree Kiarostami and Tarkovsky are clear influences on the others- though they are still very much his own creations, with quiet visual poetry, interest in nature, the elements (even a tortoise on its back a la Wind will Carry Us in one, and rippilng grasses etc)- and yes, Climates does seem to move into Antonioni territory. He may now be among the top rank of current directors.
