How is NOBODY talking about all the Indiana Jones references??? I mean SO many!!! This was great, even coming out of Pixar. It only feels like a “generic animated kids movie” because of Chris Pratt’s voice acting. Besides that everything about this feels so original. Honestly really sad that the release was so overshadowed by everything going on, especially considering maybe it’s the kind of movie we all need right now? /:

wow, not too shabby for a dreamworks sequel!!! unfortunately it is a pixar original

The first third set me up for a grueling time but the film gets better as it goes on! If the dad stuff doesn’t get you crying, the brother stuff absolutely will. That third act is so lovely and fun and has a surprisingly simple but terrific climax with one of my favorite “creatures” in recent memory. It ain’t Pixar’s finest, but even A- Pixar is a pretty good film from anyone else. Don’t go in expecting a wild, wide vision of magical realism though– the most inventive fantastical creation of the film is a cop that is a good boyfriend. (Did Lana Del Rey ghostwrite on this)

Not looking forward to yet another inevitable week of think pieces dedicated to an explicitly-queer minor character in a Disney film, though!

so this tells us that humanity possessed actual fucking magic but we were too lazy to exercise it so we picked consumerism instead? sounds legit

Just about all of Pixar’s movies have a meta element about their own creation, so the fact that Onward is about trying to rediscover magic in a world that used to be full of wonder is pretty interesting.

I wish I could say that this is funnier and has a more coherent story than the average D&D session, but...

...at least the ending was good?

Okay so this is super fun and cute and lame and has plot holes but just be there for the dungeons and dragons tropes and family bonding.

Rewatching Onward was more delightful than I expected. The soul of this film about brotherhood and finding yourself still really sticks with me and become more emphasised when watching it again. The quest they go on is still thrilling to watch, making the film feel like it goes by more quickly and I noticed so much more the second round through. The magic in this film is so enticing and shows off the wonder of magic. This film just is even better on the second viewing and I can't recommend it enough.

if u love to cry and have daddy issues, this is perfect for you!

Onward (2020) is a expensive rip-off of The Asylum's Homeward (2020). Since I saw Homeward first, that's always how I'll feel about this!

This was actually a lot better than i thought it was gonna be! It's geeky, humorous and also very heartwarming. This is definitely in the better majority of Disney movies and actually wouldn't mind seeing a sequel in a few years time.

This movie was good Tom Holland and Chris Pratt do a great job. But the movie not was exciting like want Pixar always do with Coco and a lot others.
I want a twist in the movie when Ian want to meet his dad.
But the adventure was so good I liked this movie so much...
You should watch it but in home XD.

its kinda giving me harry potter vibes and i’m lovin’ it🤩

The premise of this is wild, and I would like a compelling reason why the two leads had to be male. But the last half an hour really got me, I admit.
