Flow, le chat qui n'avait plus peur de l'eau

RecommendedTrusted family reviewers

Flow (2024) Directed by Gints Zilbalodis I wanted to watch Flow because it was made entirely on Blender, the FOSS animation program. FOSS stands for Free and Open Source Software, programs available to anyone for free, built and maintained by a global community of developers who believe software should be accessible rather than locked behind corporate paywalls. I had Blender installed on my computer once but...

My wife liked it, I hadn't even heard of it. And I'll be honest, the animation irritated me, I found it jarring and off putting. It wasn't bad, it wasn't disturbing, it was just jarring and off putting, almost like the videos you see on social media of people cleaning barnacles off whales with a broom, it's that level of jarring and off putting. But the story is actually not bad, it's a bit on the fun side an...

After a fairly scary start with a group of growling dogs, our usually quite sedentary cat makes it’s way back to a comfortable bed just in time for an inundation to flood his surrounding forest dwelling. There is no sign of any human being anywhere, but a small boat floats by manned by a coypu. The cat hops aboard and after an initial spat, the host settles back to sleep and they continue to drift aimlessly along ...

Beautiful movie but quite simple and obviously meaningless, you need to have studied art to get close to understand what they want to convey. Oscar for best animation but that's all it's good for. A lot of awards but it's really a movie that you don't understand. And to think that another Oscar nominee for best animation 2025 was The Wild Robot .... _**Good HDR TV color checker.**_

Sometimes the simplest yet most profound messages we can receive come from the unlikeliest of sources. So it is with the second animated feature from writer-director Gints Zilbalodis, a stunningly beautiful, inspiringly insightful odyssey about a band of animals seeking to find their way and survive in a new world. When a great flood essentially destroys the world of man, a wide-eyed black cat must figure out how ...

A cat goes through some adventure. It's nothing for a movie lover. 2/10

Yes, this film is largely a visual treat but what more do we get here? A fairy tale about different spices getting along – except for with fishes of course, who are merely colorful props who conveniently don't scream. But this fairy tale has little to do with reality, as seen in Europe during the last decade – even if its crude message probably is largely why this film has been received so positively. Or maybe...
