Onward - BLU-RAY

Any Disney movies I buy I highly recommend to anyone that likes Disney stuff. This was awesome and I highly recommend.

Excellant movie of going on an adventure and dealing with the loss of a parent

It's a shame that this movie's theatrical release was cut short by the COVID-19 shutdowns, but definitely get it on disc or stream it online. Pixar's animation is beautiful, of course. And the story is touching, as two elf brothers living in a modern technology-based world set out on an epic magical quest. Will they be able to complete the restoration spell and meet their departed father before the sun sets? Of course. This is Disney-Pixar, after all. But how will that happen? That's the adventure that's worth watching and rewatching.

This has to be one of the best I have seen from Pixar. Aside from the original 9 story ideas at least (those are always classics) this was just amazing. They took the typical trope of the parent(s) dying but like Frozen made it more focus on siblings saving each other but in vastly different ways. It's amazing and needs to be supported. It's unfortunate that this movie was released when it did and with the poor marketing. Buy this move on this early release and support the makers of this beautiful movie.

Absolutely stunning! Comedic elements, but fundamentally a serious fantasy quest as a whole family picture. All main characters grow from start to finish. It is easy to see them as just “human” regardless of whether elf, manticore, centaur, etc. Loved the unicorns as scuzzy scavengers. Really loved the Easter eggs to Lord of the Rings, Shrek, Willow, and Emperor’s New Groove. ( Those are just the ones identified so far. My family has seen it twice in four weeks.). Highly recommended.
