The film has a 40 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 10 reviews. [4]
Nick Schager of Variety gave the film a negative review and wrote, "Emitting the unpleasant stench of over-affectation, Treading Water slaps together its particular peculiarities with such randomness, it’s as if the film were conceived from blindly throwing disparate elements at the wall." [2]
Sheila O'Malley of RogerEbert.com awarded the film two and a half stars. [5]
Mark Adams of Screen Daily gave the film a positive review, calling it "a gentle charmer punctuated with a series of nicely judged performance and an increasing sense of magical realism." [1]
