A wondrous journey, through realms natural and mystical, Flow follows a courageous cat after his home is devastated by a great flood. Teaming up with a capybara, a lemur, a bird, and a dog to navigate a boat in search of dry land, they must rely on trust, courage, and wits to survive the perils of a newly aquatic planet. From the boundless imagination of the award-winning Gints Zilbalodis (Away) comes a thrilling animated spectacle as well as a profound meditation on the fragility of the environment and the spirit of friendship and community. Steeped in the soaring possibilities of visual storytelling, Flow is a feast for the senses and a treasure for the heart.

Adam Graham Detroit News An animated adventure with a gentle touch and a simple message, "Flow" is a bit like the story of Noah's Ark, minus Noah. Rated: A- Dec 13, 2024 Full Review Ty Burr Washington Post It is dreamy, epic, perilous and very beautiful. Rated: 4/4 Dec 6, 2024 Full Review Jake Coyle Associated Press Reflections run through “Flow”, but none more so than the image of ourselves gazing back at it. Rated: 3.5/4 Dec 6, 2024 Full Review Sean P. Means The Movie Cricket “Flow” is a movie that you get completely sucked into as you watch it, then marvel at how it came to exist at all. It’s as pure and as specific as storytelling gets. Rated: 4/4 Jan 18, 2025 Full Review Mariló Delgado Espinof Flow is an emotional journey about friendship and a thousand themes we've seen before, but it manages to put its own satisfying spin on a well-worn formula. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 5/5 Jan 18, 2025 Full Review Alan Ng Film Threat What stands out in the end is friendship from the perspective of an animal, not an anthropomorphized one.

melissa a Beautiful, moving..see it on a large screen Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/25 Full Review Jane Great graphics , engaging story of survival and friendship among animals Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/25 Full Review Manuel Beautiful animation and story without words. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/25 Full Review Melissa E Overly hyped by critics. What a snoozer. 30 minutes in my 10 year asked when the movie would start. I don’t understand the animation style with what looks like the animators rough draft. It’s also hard to sense where the stories set - there’s a woodworkers lodge with giant carved cats and then what appears to be an ancient city and tombs out of Cambodia. Lots of missed opportunities to have the animals work more together. Not memorable. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/25 Full Review MVL Such a beautiful movie. Went in skeptical about the lack of dialogue but I barely noticed it once the movie started. 7 year old walked out saying she hopes there is a part 2. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/25 Full Review JuanMB A beautiful film. The animation is incredible and the story is so compelling. Not the easiest for small children, but good to push their attention span and decrease the need for heavy stimulation. I fully recommend this film. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/25 Full Review Read all reviews
