Recently we went and watched Disney&#39;s &quot;Elemental&quot;, and we&#39;ve got a bit to say about it!<br/><br/>First off, we both loved this movie! The worst thing about this movie is how little we saw about it before hand. &quot;Elemental&quot; centers around Ember, a fire elemental immigrant to element city, with a bit of a temper and a ton of pressure to save and take over the family business, and Wade, a water elemental who just so happens to also be an extremely emotional city code inspector.<br/><br/>Elemental does very well bringing to light the challenges an immigrant family/group faces in a new environment, while also making sure it&#39;s wrapped up in a cute animated rom-com. The other elements are afraid, hostile, or dismissive when it comes to the the fire district and its people,but it&#39;s evened out with the budding romance between your two main characters. It also does very well in showing how important unity is among different groups of people. The art and animation in this one are amazingly done as well! The characters, in our opinion, are all well animated, well designed, and unique enough in their own ways. The animation, as standard with Pixar, is 100% on point.<br/><br/>Elemental, however, does lack in a select few areas. The side characters for the air and earth elements were all forgettable. Clod, Fern, Gale, and Lutz are all forgettable. The main characters and their families are well done and fleshed out. But they miss the mark on the backup characters. The story is also, nothing we&#39;ve never seen before. Obviously it&#39;s hard to continuously come up with brand new never done before stories, so this is only a small critique, but it&#39;s been done before.<br/><br/>Overall though, we loved Elemental. It&#39;s a fantastic choice to watch with the family/kids. It didn&#39;t feel like anything was forced, there&#39;s good jokes for both parents and kids, it has an emotional ending, and the movie does do a good job of getting its message across. It&#39;s a Pixar romantic comedy movie and it does what it set out to do. It won&#39;t change the world, but it&#39;s got a good message.<br/><br/>We recommend this movie 100% if you&#39;re a fan of family friendly animation, or Disney movies in general. IMDb has this at a 7.1 but collectively we give this an 8/10.<br/><br/>TLDR - With a few lows, we still loved elemental and feel it&#39;s a great movie to watch with the family on movie night! Catch it when it comes to streaming! 8/10.

Elemental is a movie that just doesn&#39;t stick out. Pixar made this one a unoriginal story of opposites attacting and families and community not wanting them together. Not much was stuff hadn&#39;t seen before. One of the things that did stick out to me was the animation. Nothing mind boggling but it is one of recent Pixar&#39;s best work visual wise. I loved how vivid everything was and the elements driving movements. This movie also made laugh multiple times, which for me is pretty good. Some of those laughs however might have just been cope with the cringe, which this movie has a lot of. Some of the movements that characters make in this movie made my face sickle up. This movie entertained me for a bit, just barely though. You could watch better things in your time but if you really want then this movie would be enough to fill a boring night.

Elemental tells the story of Ember(Leah Lewis) &amp; Wade(Mamoudou Athie). Ember is a woman who is made of the fire element. Wade is a man who is made of the water element. They live in a city where fire, water, land &amp; air people, live together harmoniously.<br/><br/>Elemental is an awe-inspiring film. Director Peter Sohn has given us a flawless Pixar movie, after last year&#39;s above average Lightyear(2022). There are many scenes that will make you laugh raucously. The emotional scenes will make you tear up. The animation is mind-blowing. The 3D is eye-popping. The vocal performances are the highlight of the film. Leah Lewis is spectacular as Ember. Mamoudou Athie is outstanding as Wade Ripple. Ronnie Del Carmen is awesome as Bernie. Shila Ommi is perfect as Cinder. Wendi McLendon-Covey is hysterical as Gale. Catherine O&#39;Hara is amazing as Brook. The supporting cast is impressive. Elemental is a must watch for Pixar fans. The legendary animation studio is back in top form. Please watch Elemental on the big screen &amp; make sure it&#39;s the box office success it deserves to be!
