Patema Inverted Ratings & Reviews
Tiny Mix Tapes
Derek Smith
Unless you're jonesing for new Japanese animation, you'd be advised to reverse your gravitational pull and steer clear of this one.
Common Sense Media
Barbara Shulgasser
Dark anime delves into prejudice in upside-down worlds.
Under the Radar
Jennifer Chang
If only Patema Inverted's ambitious concept and dizzying plot twists could be accompanied by characters and dialogue of the same standard.
Film Journal International
David Noh
Yasuhiro Yoshiura has fashioned an ingenious animated fable, rooted in scientific phenomena which will stir the imaginations of adults and kids alike, challenging as it might be at times for the latter demographic.

Brian Tallerico
"Patema Inverted" mines a lot of entertainment value and social allegory from a pretty great concept despite being held back from greatness by a clunky narrative.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
An orphaned girl and a fatherless boy bridge opposing societies in "Patema Inverted," a delightful animated fable from Yasuhiro Yoshiura.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
The film by Yasuhiro Yoshiura suffers from many of the same flaws as other anime features - a plodding pace, broad humor, a bland heroine and snarly, one-dimensional villains.
Village Voice
Sherilyn Connelly
Yoshiura keeps the story fairly linear, while playing with perspective and composing many stunning, vertiginous images that consider the different possibilities of being at war with gravity.
