« Shi's film [Turning Red] uses the onset of Mei's magical puberty, sensitively and playfully, as a catalyst for cringe comedy. It works as beautifully as it does because the film's comedy has been machined with Swiss precision, and all of its characters written with obvious love: the closest thing it has to villains are two well-meaning but fallible parents. Visual flourishes are seamlessly swiped from Japanese anime, from hand-drawn panic lines to hilarious crash-zooms, while the slapstick is poetry: weighted, inventive and rhythmically perfect. »
