I dont know how Pixar does it. They make all the magic feel so real. I know they have a proven formula thet follow, but still... it simply works. 9/10. What an awesome movie. Go see. Ideally with the whole family. You will laugh you will cry it will change your life  ps - one point down for not using the morse code |

I really, really want to see it being a Pixar fan that I am, but I worry about the outside world. :/
When worst comes to worst, I’ll order it on Blu-ray.

I don’t drive but I can easily get a ride there. |

Wanted to watch it next week, but won't be able to since cinemas are closed. Good to hear you liked it though.

Not a cartoon fan, unlike the old classics of Walt Disney, but this is one I want to see. Looks cute and warm and is about male bonding and not woke and prissy princess s<>t. Pity it got released at this time because box office will be killed. I am not a cartoon superfan either, but there have been some I really liked (Shrek, Toy Story 2, Coco) and this one joins that club even though I didnt have any laugh out loud moments like the other movies I mentioned above did. (leaving the masterpieces like Isle of Dogs and Anomalisa out since those are primarily for adults and this a diff beast altogether) |

I liked it well enough, but I don't know if it would make my top 5 Pixar movies. My 10-year old niece didn't like it; I guess it must have been too adult and maybe too sad for her.

Do you think it might have been because for a female child, it wasn't as relatable because it was about 2 male characters? I hadn't thought about it, but I suppose it's possible. At the very least, it didn't help her!

Since it’s hitting Disney+ in April, I guess I’ll have a chance to see it after all.

Nora Just finished watching it. It was very enjoyable and heartwarming. Far from Pixar’s best but that doesn’t take anything away from it being a great movie on its own. I really liked the dynamic between the brothers.

Any movie with Chris Pratt can’t be higher than a 5/10. I cannot fucking stand him.

ONWARD features a fantastical character named The Manticore. Her design, her backstory, her current life and her change of motivation are all quite unique. She's paired up with an elf named Laurel Lightfoot and they have some wacky adventures together. I wish they had been the main focus of the movie. Instead, the protagonist is Laurel's son Ian. Don't get me wrong. He and his brother Barley experience a series of funny and thrilling situations and they each have a deep arc, but all of their scenes are a lot less original and memorable. Also, their designs aren't that interesting. They look like 2 humans who happen to have blue skin and pointy ears. Early on, they cast a spell that brings back their dead father's legs without the upper body. They put on... well... things on top in order to disguise him as a full body. I was relieved when they discovered that they had to go on a journey, because if the plot had only been about keeping this secret, it would've felt like an ANIMANIACS segment. Not a bad idea; just not something suited for a feature film. Tom Holland's performance is good. Chris Pratt displays charisma, but he struggles during the emotional moments. 6/10 ------------------------------------- You can read comments of other movies in my blog. |
