Pandas Ratings & Reviews
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Jody Mitori
The film creates an immersive experience with sweeping views of the mountains of Sichuan, but while the scenery is stunning, the focus stays on the bamboo-loving Qian Qian and her struggles in her new environment.
Fresh Fiction
Courtney Howard
Enchanting, enlightening and educational in equal measure, this is one to go wild over.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
About as perfect as IMAX nature documentaries can get: informative, family-friendly, beautifully and immersively photographed, and so adorable that my scribbled screening notes are full of trenchant observations like "SO FUZZY!"
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
"Pandas" does its subject justice and is a reminder of the importance of protecting endangered species and preserving the environment when these values have fallen from official favor.
Boston Herald
Stephen Schaefer
Beyond its awesome cuteness factor, "Pandas" dramatizes the benefits of cross-cultural cooperation, showing a path forward for similar endangered species.
Common Sense Media
Sandie Angulo Chen
Educational doc about scientists training pandas to go wild.

Richard Propes
Narrated with vibrance and soft compassion by actress Kristen Bell.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Jeff Strickler
By the time it's all said and done, you don't just want to help save the pandas, you want to take one home with you.
Village Voice
Simon Abrams
So visually dynamic that even the most pedantic (think Neil deGrasse Tyson level) skeptics will probably not mind listening to narrator Kristen Bell - speaking for writer-co-director Drew Fellman - rattle off 43 minutes' worth of cutesy panda trivia.
The Hollywood Reporter
Michael Rechtshaffen
Chronicling the challenges faced by Chinese researchers in regard to preparing captive-bred giant pandas for release into the wild, the involving, breathtakingly photographed documentary makes the most of its allotted 43-minute running time.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
The panda is increasingly a fragile and precious hothouse species - hermetically born and raised, unable to survive on its own. The movie shows you the steep climb they're now facing.
Film Journal International
David Noh
Hands down the cutest movie of the year.
