It's a pretty interesting nature documentary as far as it goes. But given its globe-trotting scope and the risky location work involved for the filmmakers, it's a tiny bit strange "Aquarela" goes only so far. August 29, 2019 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Without any narration or talking heads, Kossakovsky's cinematic globe-trotting documentary dazzles us with doom. August 22, 2019 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Even at 89 minutes, the film seems too long. Kossakovsky just seems to want us to admire his footage, and that's about it. It becomes monotonous. August 21, 2019 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Immersive, cinematically overpowering - delivering an (unstated) environmental message that - with global warming - we're all living on thin ice. April 22, 2020 | Rating: 6/10 | Full Review…

In this vision, water feels like a very old god: a pagan one that is volatile, wrathful, impassive to the perils of man and yet majestic and serene. December 11, 2019 | Full Review…

Ultimately, Aquarela is a dull, one-tone documentary that offers a pretentious filmmaking approach. What saves this from being a total washout is its cinematography. November 15, 2019 | Rating: 1/5 | Full Review…

Drawing from the translation of its name, "watercolor," Aquarela features no real narrative as it moves languidly from beginning to end. In this way, Aquarela is an absolutely mesmerizing piece of cinema. November 12, 2019 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…
