Bao Ratings & Reviews
Gone With The Twins
Mike Massie
An incredibly creative take on empty nest syndrome.
Bay Area Reporter
Roberto Friedman
This will probably win the prize, as it's from the Disney-Pixar powerhouse studio, but we found it cloying and sentimental.

Rachel Wagner
Bao was sweet and lovely.
Variety
Peter Debruge
As a metaphor for (s)motherhood, it's a brilliant example of what Pixar does best, grounding well-timed cartoon gags - including a twist that literally caused audiences to gasp in surprise - with well-earned emotional truths.
Diario La Estrella (Fort Worth, TX)
Laura Hiros
A strong possibility of taking the [Oscar]. [Full review in Spanish]
San Diego CityBeat
Glenn Heath Jr.
Despite its Pixar polish, the film remains a moving testament to how quickly life can pass us by.
Every Movie Has a Lesson
Don Shanahan
It is incredibly encouraging to see a large creative hub like Pixar make strides towards domestic inclusions of diversity
