What a delight!
I would recommend Flow to anyone of any age. Kids will be captivated by it. Adults will be thoroughly entertained. I watched it with my wife and mother and we all loved it. The genius of *Flow* lies in its ability to tell a complex story without a single word of dialogue. Through masterful visual storytelling, we follow the journey of unlikely companions brought together by circumstance. The movie proves that friendship knows no species, and survival depends on cooperation.
What starts as a simple tale of animals escaping rising waters becomes a meditation on trust, growth, and the bonds we forge in times of crisis.

Old CG, but still effective
I’ll be honest: initially, I was a little put off by the low-quality CG. It looks like the CG from a game that came out 15 years ago. But in time, it gave me a feeling of nostalgia. Oh, for the days of Halo II and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. And at no time was the low-res CG a limitation in telling the story.
There are numerous laugh-out-loud scenes and some real tension as well.
Stay Until The End
There is an extra after the end credits finish that you absolutely must see. It’s short, but you’ll be glad you saw it.
Fun fact
Director Gints Zilbalodis not only directed and wrote the film but also created the animation, composed the music, and produced the entire project largely by himself over three and a half years. It’s a testament to what passionate creators can achieve with modern animation tools.
Grade: A+

about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.
