The Horrorfirst reactions to Onward are out, and while most agree that Pixar's latest film is good fun, not everyone is enchanted.
Set in a magical world populated by fantasy creatures, Onwardfollows two elf brothers voiced by Marvel co-stars Tom Holland and Chris Pratt. After an attempt to resurrect their dead father for a day only summons his legs, the pair go on a quest to bring back his top half before time runs out.
The story has all the makings of the kind of heartstring-tugging fare Pixar has gained a reputation for, alongside some wacky, magical hijinks. Many who attended early screenings found Onwardsweet and entertaining, with emotional moments that hit particularly hard for people who have lost a parent.
However, some found the plot fairly thin, particularly in comparison to the astronomical standards audiences tend to have for Pixar movies. It sounds like a good, enjoyable film, but probably not a standout.
