But one review posted online earlier this week sparked outcry.
CinemaBlend's managing director Sean O'Connell wrote that he couldn't connect with the film, calling it "limiting."
"By rooting 'Turning Red' very specifically in the Asian community of Toronto, the film legitimately feels like it was made for Domee Shi's friends and immediate family members. Which is fine — but also, a tad limiting in its scope," O'Connell wrote.
In a since-deleted tweet, he also called the movie "exhausting."
The review has since been taken down and both O'Connell and the editor-in-chief of CinemaBlend have apologized.
