Daniel M. Gold New York Times A chilling reminder that a simple life is no shield against the disastrous or the devastating, and that the parent-child relationship is at least as essential to the parent as it is to the child. Sep 10, 2015 Full Review Diego Semerene Slant Magazine Caetano Gotardo's triptych of short tales features a sense of experimentation and poetic license mostly seen in European cinema. Rated: 3/4 Sep 10, 2015 Full Review Abby Garnett Village Voice A puzzling film that despite being saturated with feeling leaves only a vague impression. Sep 8, 2015 Full Review Eric Monder Film Journal International Potentially off-putting, 'The Moving Creatures' blends unlikely genre elements in a surprisingly endearing way.

Audience Member The music is a bit redundant and Gotardo's direction awkward sometimes (especially the mise-en-scène, more suitable for children's theater), but this slice-of-life drama can be devastating as it shows us three situations about people's lives torn apart by startling tragedies. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
