Usually a film that has standing ovation at Cannes will be followed by a batch of good reviews, and the Red Turtle is one of them.

This is a quiet little masterpiece of images, each one rich with meaning, that collectively speak to a universal process.

The Red Turtle is a poetic tale about life, love and nature. One of the best movies we've seen at Cannes 2016.
AwardsCampaign ++ By Gregory Ellwood
The Red Turtle is a beautifully animated circle of life film with a dash of magical realism.
Sight & Sound ++ By Isabel Stevens
Studio Ghibli’s first international coproduction is a ravishing castaway fable that combines beauty, mystery, drama and heartbreak – with not a word spoken.
International Cinephile Society ++ By Marc van de Klashorst
This is what perfection looks like. Mesmerizing poem about the cycle of life and man’s relation with nature.
Variety ++ By Peter Debruge
A fable so simple, so pure, it feels as if it has existed for hundreds of years, like a brilliant shard of sea glass rendered smooth and elegant through generations of retelling.
TwitchFilm ++ By Ryland Aldrich
Audiences will soon get to experience the masterpiece that is The Red Turtle over and over. Just one tip: don't forget to bring your tissues.

This is, quite simply, thoughtful and ultimately moving animation at its best.

What externally appears very spectacular, inside is a deep and profound celebration of life and nature.
FirstShowing 9/10 By Alex Billington
It's so simple yet so beautiful; I honestly was moved to tears by a few scenes.
Positive Reviews
The Film Stage B+ By Rory O'Connor
Liking or loving — or perhaps even hating — The Red Turtle will come down to whether on not the viewer can accept it. It’s always beautiful to witness, nonetheless.
Quinlan 8.5/10 By Enrico Azzano (Italian)
The Red Turtle is a story that has no beginning and no end, is the cycle of life, art cycle and creativity. It is the art to be a miracle.
The Hollywood Reporter + By Jordan Mintzer
A simplistic if beautifully rendered tale of island abandon.
The Associated Press + By Jake Coyle
The Red Turtle is hypnotic in its near-wordlessness meditation. It's a magical fable in which a shipwrecked man ruminates on life from a tropical island.
Independent 4/5 By Kaleem Aftab
Michaël Dudok de Wit has achieved the remarkable feat in The Red Turtle. The animation is supreme.
FlickReel 4/5 By Craig Skinner
You will still be mulling over the film’s many layers long after the credits have ended and Laurent Perez’ stunning and luscious score has been silenced.
The Irish Times 4/5 By Tara Brady
Studio Ghibli makes a stylish return. Nerve-wrecking action and a castaway story make for a thrilling, fresh creation.
The Telegraph 4/5 By Robbie Collin
Dudok de Wit’s compassionate, wistfully beautiful film reminds you that the net output of the nature machine is always life.

Negative Reviews
Filmmaker Magazine 2.5/5 By Blake Williams
Turtle, then, is impressive as a technical achievement but it feels merely “creative” as an artistic expression.
The Upcoming 2/5 By Joseph Owen
Such a story has something to say about human nature and the passage of time. It is a shame this film barely bothers to articulate it.
Looks like an Oscar contender to me, if only Sony decides to release it in LA this year
