Katy Perry commented on the collaboration that "[she] loved the unity perspective Aitana brought to the song, and how it evolves the message into the importance of being resilient as a group.
"[3] Fernanda Brizuela from 34th Street describes how "Resilient" "is an example of the major themes in the record, as well as the process behind writing it", emphasizing how the song "assures the listener that even though there may be tough times in life, they make us the people we are today".
[4] Austria Masin from Dancing Astronaut described how the "unique and unexpected collaboration" of the Tiësto remix "harmonizes a variety of styles, with pop meeting progressive house to the tune of Aitana's lyrics, all of which offer a fresh perspective on the original".
Along the way, a diverse cast of characters interact with the tree, including a struggling musician resembling Perry, a local business owner, a duo of ants, a butterfly, and a striped cat.
The film features Katy smiling and dancing with a flower, along with clips of diverse groups of people and couples, along with their pets, overcoming life's obstacles through positive and enjoyable activities.
