My Octopus Teacher Reviews

Must we view an octopus as a friend, a saviour, a teacher? Couldn't we simply settle for not eating them?

You'll laugh and cry your eyes out as an emotionally bruised diver learns about life and loyalty from an eight-tentacled mollusk. This Oscar favorite and viral sensation is the year's most unorthodox and unforgettable love story.

Is this octopus so extraordinary, such a miracle of the natural world, that we're going to believe this redemption tale? And the answer is: yes, it is.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 29, 2021

A rewardingly intimate deep dive.

| Mar 1, 2021

A quietly profound (and crazy) portrait of the bonds we share with everything in our environment-even if its cinematic depiction is sometimes far from perfect.

"My Octopus Teacher" never loses our goodwill: If we wind up wishing it had a little less man and a little more beast, that only serves its cause.

...each is a romance and each is inspiring.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 7, 2020
