The Red Turtle - Reviews

...a masterpiece.

...succeeds in conveying its narrative about devoted companionship without the need for language.

Under Dudok de Wit’s supervision, the Ghibli animators make moving art out of tumbling, bubbling surf, the swaying of bamboo forests and the playful skittering of crabs.

This is a movie to bask in, and we’re given the space to do so.

Dudok de Wit’s compassionate, wistfully beautiful film reminds you that the net output of the nature machine is always life.

Man mærker tydeligt Ghiblis hånd i animationerne, som er så livagtige og flydende, som man kan forvente, næsten udelukkende i 2D. Man lever sig i den grad ind i mandens kamp for overlevelse...

...sällsynt vacker, kreativ och känslofylld film...

...udfolder sig som en forunderlig fortælling om mennesket, naturen og spørgsmålet om, hvor vi egentlig kommer fra.
