- Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat @ Spirituality & Practice
- Excerpt: A remarkable animated adventure story about a group of animals discovering how they belong to each other in a devastated world.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: From the first frame of writer/director/cinematographer/editor Gints Zilbalodis’ stunning animation, that of our unnamed black cat looking at its reflection in water, a foreshadowing of its world to come, we know we are in for something special.
- Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
- Excerpt: A mesmerizing animated fable about how our connection with others can guide us forward in the wake of catastrophe.
- Wesley Lovell @ Cinema Sight
- Jared Mobarak @ Hey, have you seen …?
- Excerpt: It’s a beautifully animated and choreographed film with suspenseful life or death moments and effective action. I don’t think Flow is quite as captivating a story as Away, but you cannot deny that Zilbalodis has evolved his craft in all other aspects.
- Jacob Oller @ The A.V. Club
- Excerpt: The Latvian film is part brilliant experiment, part cutesy animal movie, but engrossing for all audiences—even if it might, like Fantasia, stick uncomfortably in the memories of the youngest in attendance.
- Bev Questad @ itsjustmovies.com
- Excerpt: It inspires, it provokes thought, and it is beautiful.
- [New] | Jeff Schaefer @ The Marquee Topic
- Excerpt: Director Gints Zibalodis won Best Animated Feature at the 97th Academy Awards for Flow. This simple – and simply beautiful – work enters The Criterion Collection as Spine #1278.
- Sebastian Zavala @ Cinencuentro.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Telling us a story devoid of dialogue or anthropomorphic characters, they’ve developed a visually beautiful and thematically powerful film, which tells us a lot about the value of cooperation and friendship. Full review in Spanish.
