Critics Reviews

Sam Mossman Arizona Republic It's a testament to the medium and another shining example of how animation can provide a memorable onscreen experience as well as any live action fare is able to do. Rated: A Nov 11, 2019 Full Review Steve Greene indieWire A piece of elemental storytelling that finds some real emotional depth without either of its protagonists uttering a single word of dialogue. Rated: A- Oct 8, 2019 Full Review David Fear Rolling Stone It's storytelling at its most basic, sound and images moving faster than a speeding velociraptor and brimming with soulfulness. Rated: 4/5 Oct 8, 2019 Full Review Chris Sawin Reel Rundown Primal is gory animation with a ton of heart. It proudly displays its influences, but it's also unlike anything else out there with how deliciously patient it is with its setups and storytelling. Rated: 5/5 Jun 19, 2021 Full Review Peter Canavese Celluloid Dreams An Adult Swim show--a near-wordless, entirely visual narrative with a graphic novel earnestness. (Blu-ray review of Season One). Rated: 3/4 Jun 11, 2021 Full Review Adam Rosenberg Mashable Primal has a surprising amount to say for a show that's entirely devoid of dialogue. Apr 9, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
