Robbie Collin Daily Telegraph (UK) It’s an intimate film with a roomy embrace. Rated: 4/5 Nov 4, 2024 Full Review Kambole Campbell indieWire Funny, joyful, and brimming with confidence. Rated: A- Oct 30, 2024 Full Review Wendy Ide Screen International It’s as sweet as its candy-store colour palette, but there’s emotional nourishment in the film’s delicate handling of teen angst and loneliness. Jun 20, 2024 Full Review Ard Vijn ScreenAnarchy There is surprisingly little drama in this drama, but it isn't missed or needed here either. While the designs lean heavily on the familiar side, The Colors Within is just a very pleasant viewing experience, one of the best anime films released this year. Rated: 4/5 Nov 17, 2024 Full Review Jana Monji Age of the Geek This film is beautifully illustrated and sensitively portrays two girls forming a band and finding friendship and faith as a minority in Japan. Rated: 4/5 Nov 1, 2024 Full Review Ryan Guar Discussing Film The Colors Within has an immersive quality unlike any other animated movie released in 2024. The film specializes in providing warmth as it celebrates the joy of experiencing and creating great art. Rated: 5/5 Oct 27, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
