This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a decent film however I am disappointed in the story. Instead of going down an adventurous plotline and creating something rememberable, the filmmakers chose to go the dad issues route which makes this very underwhelming. There's so much more this film could've been instead especially with the wizard aspects however they made a teen film under the guise of fantasy.… Expand

It might not succeed at selling the feeling of having reintroduced magic and adventure into its Tolkien-esque fantasy world that has moved on from such things in favor of the comforts or the modern era by the time the credits have rolled, and its tale about a young man overcoming the lack of a father in his life and discovering who he is definitely feels like something we've seen before, but there's still enough heart and humor here to provide an enjoyable and emotional experience regardless. In fact, if this hadn't of come from Pixar it probably would have been a little bit more celebrated.

That's a problem the animation studio has run into over the past 10 or so years. After doing the unprecedented and releasing nothing short of straight masterpieces from 1995 to 2010, it's hard to accept anything from them that comes off as even remotely conventional. Yet, although Onward isn't fresh or inventive enough to be the next Toy Story or Ratatouille, it certainly isn't a Cars 2 or Monsters University level disaster. Rather, it ranks comfortably among the likes of Brave and The Good Dinosaur, which are still fantastic movies in their own rights even if they aren't held in as high of regards as the classics.

A likable movie that plays it pretty safe. The dungeons and dragons angle is a nice concept for the movie and integrates quite well with the narrative. But there aren't any moments that really stand out which is a characteristic of a Pixar classic.

Onward is about as good as Monsters University quality-wise (which is funny because both movies were directed by Dan Scanlon), but I enjoy Monsters University a whole heck of a lot more. Onward is a fun movie for sure, it has a great cast, and the animation of course is extremely well done. There was never a part in this movie that I wasn't enjoying myself. It's a completely fine and safe movie. My biggest problem with it is that Onward isn't more than just a fun movie. By now, I expect really big things from PIXAR and I only got a fine film. The emotional scenes are good but not great, the humor is good but not hilarious, and the story works but it didn't blow my mind. Another issue I have with the film is the setting in general. I don't know why the creative team decided to have magical beings but have the world look exactly like ours just with a few word-play gags. I'm gonna compare this setting to Zootopia's because Zootopia's world blew my mind. After all, it made me believe that if the world was run by animals it would look like that. I don't buy the fact that fairies would be on motorcycles that are much larger than them. I don't buy the fact that Centaurs would drive in cars that they can't fit into. It's one of PIXAR's least inspired films in my opinion. Even though that gripe seems nit-picky, it really did bother me. Overall, Onward is a good film and pretty enjoyable. However, I do expect more from PIXAR.… Expand

Pixar logró estrenar dos proyectos en un año demasiado trágico y caótico. "Oward" es el primero y tuve la fortuna de verla en el cine. Es oficialmente la última película que vi antes de que los cines cerraran por la pandemia. La experiencia fue muy amable y conmovedora. No evita el cliché pero cuida la madures en el clímax y por eso "Onward" se merece un cálido abrazo. Dirigido por Dan Scanlon, director de "Monsters University" (2013), la historia presenta a dos hermanos elfos en un mundo donde coexiste la magia y las criaturas míticas que buscan ver y hablar con su padre una última vez en su vida. "Onward" es una seria de aventuras que nos permite conocer a los personajes y al mundo en el que viven, así como sus inspiraciones, anhelos y recuerdos. Este viaje une a los hermanos lo suficiente como para ganarse el cariño del publico y es suficientemente entretenido como para que haya muy pocas quejas. Aunque la garantía del éxito en cada aventura se puede previsualizar, los acontecimientos logran crear suficiente tensión como para sostener la atención constantemente.
Tom Holland y Chris Pratt son las voces principales. Holland logra evocar un sentimiento de timidez e introversión en su personaje, mientras que Pratt logra complementar con carisma y energía. La dramática está equilibrada, pero su mayor éxito esta en el final de la película, pues la combinación entre los personajes y el destino de la historia crean un momento muy conmovedor, lleno de moraleja, sensible y con una fuerza emocional muy bonita.
En cuestión a la animación y lo visual Pixar lo hace de nuevo. Hay una textura muy vibrante en la película y la velocidad de la animación sorprende, pues denota un dominio muy grande sobre ese arte. El vestuario es algo simple y la escenografía no es increíble, pero sí es preciosa.
"Onward" es un hermoso equilibrio entre lo que la gente quiere ver con un crudo giro de madurez que se comparte con sensibilidad y cariño.

Pixar achieves to release two projects in a very tragic and chaotic year. The first of them is "Onward", which I had the fortune to watch in cinemas and is officially the last movie that I watched before the cinemas get closed by the pandemic. The experience was very friendly and moving, without avoiding the cliche but taking care of maturity at the climax, "Onward" deserves a warm hug. Directed by Dan Scanlon, director of "Monsters University" (2013), the story presents two elf brothers in a world where magic and mythical creatures coexist searching to see and talk with their father one last time in their lives. "Onward" is a series of adventures that let us know about the characters and the world they live in, as their inspirations, dreams, and memories too. This journey unites the brothers enough to win the public charm, and it entertains enough to reduce complaints. Although the guarantee of success in each adventure can be previewed, the events manage to create enough tension to sustain constant attention.
Tom Holland and Chris Pratt are the main voices. Hollands achieves to evoke a feeling of shyness and introversion in his character, while Pratt complements successfully with charisma and energy. The drama is balanced, but the biggest success is at the end of the movie since the relation between the characters and the destiny of the story creates a very moving momentum, full of message, sensible, and with beautiful emotional strength.
On the animation and visual side, Pixar does it again. There is a vibrant texture in the movie, and the speed of the animation surprises because it proves a big and versatile control over this art. The costume design is a little simple, and the scenery is not amazing, but it is cute.
"Onward" is a beautiful balance between what people want to see with a raw maturity twist shared with sensibility and charm.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Lo que mas llama la atención de la película es la ambientación en general, muy innovadora en ese sentido, ademas de tener gráficos muy bonitos... Pero desgraciadamente la historia, si bien tiene sus momentos, les falta cosas por explotar. Específicamente hubiera estado bueno que explotaran todas las cosas del pasado que se mencionan, en vez de quedar en un segundo plano (hasta cerca del final). Tampoco se cuenta como el padre de Ian consiguió el bastón de mago, junto con la piedra mágica, ademas de saber como funcionaba... Eso si que esta bastante forzado. Pero quitando eso, es en parte memorable y definitivamente tiene sus momentos, como la relación entre hermanos que la película intenta transmitir. Para pasar el rato, la recomiendo bastante.… Expand

This movie is pretty subpar for Pixar standards, it's easily their weakest film in a while. The animation and score are gorgeous, the plot leaves alot to be desired.

A principio, o universo apresentado é muito interessante e peculiar. Houve uma época onde a magia era essencial, porém a tecnologia tomou protagonismo e as pessoas escolheram o que lhe era mais conveniente. O interessante, quanto a narrativa, é que o filme não problematiza a tecnologia, mas apresenta o ponto de que a mesma é uma evolução natural - que devemos seguir em frente [guardem isso ao assistir o filme]-, mas que não devemos esquecer tais "costumes". Podemos trazer isso a vida real com menos, como preferir conversar pessoalmente, mas não abandonar os aplicativos mensageiros.

Enfim a família nos é apresentada. A base da trama é bem simples, partindo do Ian, um adolescente querendo se encontrar no mundo, mas que parece perdido, e sem a presença de um pai - que o mesmo se inspira-, tudo piora. Sua mãe, Laurel, é muito autônoma e dá conta até onde pode [inclusive, gostei muito de não antagonizarem o padrasto dos garotos]. Pouco tempo depois, Barley, irmão mais velho, nos é apresentado, e o filme parece brincar com a imagem do mesmo. Com perfil musculoso, roupas "rebeldes", um certo tipo de glorificação do passado, o irmão parece mais um problema para o protagonista, porém tudo muda com o tempo, com ele se tornando o melhor personagem do filme, para mim. E eu fico me perguntando... como seria se aquela cena fosse do ponto de vista do Barley e não do Ian, afinal, é revelado que Ian acha o seu irmão um inútil em certo ponto da historia. O ponto de vista poderia ser diferente.

Enfim, após descobrir uma carta do pai, o filme gira sua atenção integralmente para isso, enquanto a trama real - a que mais importa - é construída no subcontexto: o amor e amizade entre os irmãos.

As piadas são muito leves, e para alguém da minha idade, talvez não funcione muito. Os irmãos não são lá os mais carismáticos, mas tem uma personalidade rica, compreensível e apreciável. Também amei algumas sacadas, como o sacrifício da van - achei muito emocionante, partido do fato que é uma van; e a dinâmica entre a metade do pai.

Quanto ao plot, achei a briga um pouco forçada. É claro que a separação precisava acontecer, mas não acho que essa tenha sido a melhor maneira, porém, o plot é tão agradável que eu desconsiderei isso. A revelação da subtrama, quanto aos irmãos, é emocionante e dá um sentido novo ao filme. O que antes era uma obra ok, se tornou expendida, com um novo significado. E o clímax não decepciona. A batalha entre o dragão versus Manticore, Laurel e Ian - usando todos os poderes - é sensacional, e logo após isso, a sacada de não mostrar o pai foi genial. Escapando de julgamentos, o filme prefere mostrar o seu espectro, sua imagem paternal, e devo dizer que funcionou perfeitamente...

The plot can be pretty predictable at times and the movie follows a very formulaic pattern, but the relationship between the brothers and the overall message in the ending mostly redeems this movie for its faults.

Onward is a contemporary fantasy about two brothers on their quest to bond with their father. The film has great character design and animation. The film's plot does leave something to be desired.

I am after all, a mostly adult man. But seriously who isI have always given Pixar the benefit of the doubt that they are legitimately trying to tell good stories and any time I might not like one of their films it just might not be for me. I am after all, a mostly adult man. But seriously who is Onward for? It's really lazy in story and character. It takes this fantastical premise and setting and makes it super boring. What if dungeons and dragons were real and set in the real world? Sounds exciting right? Well turns out its exactly like our real world but people look different and there's magic but not a lot of magic so it really doesn't mean much. Cooooooool. It's honestly so freaking boring I can't believe it made it past the script phase, someone at Disney or Pixar should have been like... this is a sitcom episode from the 1950's with elf people. Do we really have anything to say with this? Omg why do the brothers have so much reverence for their dad when he was literally never around and their mom has zero screen time to actually share why their dad was awesome. It's just blind male hero worship without introspection. Also why the heck would you chose the bottom half to materialize from a story standpoint??? If the top half materialized then at least you can have some engaging character work and the brothers have to learn how to take care of others (and of course dumb comedy happenings) but instead we get the uncharismatic legs and feet wandering around like a useless plot device. Sigh. Pixar has really fell from grace.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Onward Review

Everyones saying Pixar is back, that Onward is so orginal and creative. Call Me buzzkill train because it is lame,coprately manufactered, boring in some cases and predictible from start to finish. I hate this film way more than Cars 2 (which i enjoy ironicly) Onward basicly took two MCU Stars (Tom Holland and Chris Pratt) and mixed them in a generic story that you'd think is a Box Office Bomb of a DREAMWORKS Movie and reuses regular Fantasy Tropes. Over all Onward is Lukewarm at Best and absoultey bland and mediocre at worse. Like Cars 2, Onward is made for KIDS AND KIDS ONLY. Sometimes its funny but other times it uses Junvinal humor aimed at the lowest common detonator or Obscure Doungons and Dragon refrences on huge DAD fans will get

the story (with all do respect to the director) is reused with so much issues and chiches

sorry if this review is late but i felt like i NEEDED TO write this review. Thank you for reading my review. Stay Home, Stay Safe folks!… Expand

When I first heard about this movie, I was really excited. It’s the first movie in Pixar’s new initiative to focus only on original films once again. That, and I like the idea behind the movie. What if a Lord of the Rings-esque fantasy worldWhen I first heard about this movie, I was really excited. It’s the first movie in Pixar’s new initiative to focus only on original films once again. That, and I like the idea behind the movie. What if a Lord of the Rings-esque fantasy world progressed into the modern era with technology? I know there was that Netflix movie Bright with the same idea, but that movie sucked. I expected that Pixar would do something a lot more interesting with the idea and tell a better story with it. However, and it pains me to say this, but this movie is not very good. It’s not a terrible movie by any means, but by Pixar standards this is definitely on the bottom half of their filmography. First of all, the universe this movie takes place in it not very interesting. It’s literally just a modern setting that just happens to be inhabited by fantasy creatures. There were some interesting ideas, like fantasy RPGs being based on history, but there weren’t really any interesting design choices and it doesn’t feel very well thought-out. I can’t help but compare Onward to Zootopia, another animated film that takes place in an alternate universe, in which animals evolved and became civilized. In that movie, every detail of the world was fleshed out. There was real thought and attention to detail given to this world and how it would function with its different-sized inhabitants. There’s nothing like that in Onward. The comedy did not work for me at all. I never laughed once. The writing and dialogue just isn’t that great. Also, one of the main characters is a disembodied pair of legs. It was an interesting idea, but I don’t feel like the character was expressive enough and I don’t feel like he had enough of a connection with the other two main characters when he really should, he’s their resurrected dead father. He’s treated like a prop half the time. The story felt very repetitive and way too familiar. I feel like I’ve seen something like it in a million other movies. As for the animation, it’s fine. It’s appealing and colourful and energetic, but nothing about it stood out or felt like it was pushing the boundaries of technology. Personally, I thought Toy Story 4 looked a lot better. Even some of the Pixar SparkShorts on Disney+ look more impressive. Releasing the trailer for Pixar’s next movie Soul before this movie was a big mistake. The animation in that looks a million times better and more interesting. The voice acting was also fine, but I have to say I’m getting pretty sick of Chris Pratt and Tom Holland. They’re in everything! Give some other actors a try! Not every movie needs to have a Marvel actor in it! Give it a rest! Now, believe it or not, there actually is one thing that I really enjoyed about this movie and think is very well-done, the third act. Without giving anything away, all the creativity, emotion and heart that you would expect out of a Pixar movie can be found in the third act. It has a really great climax, some great character moments and a great message. If the whole movie were more like act three, I would have liked it a lot more than I did. However, I can’t really give the movie any extra credit if it only starts getting really good at the end. As for my recommendation, well, if you’re a Pixar fan you’ve probably already seen it. I actually highly recommend that you show it to your kids. I don’t think the unoriginal story or worldbuilding issues would bother them and it does have a really good moral. There’s a lot in it for kids to like. As for older audiences, if you’re a fan of Tolkien or D&D you might get some enjoyment out of it. Otherwise, you could watch it if you’re curious, it’s on Disney+, but I say skip it and wait for Soul. It really doesn’t appeal to adults in the same way that most of Pixar’s other movies do. Man, what is up with Disney lately? It seems ever since Ralph Breaks the Internet, they haven’t been able to make many good non-Marvel movies. All those remakes, Frozen II, The Rise of Skywalker and now Onward, among others, have not been up to Disney’s usual quality. But who cares about quality when you have all the money? Damn shame.… Expand

He passed before he was born. The setting for this truly magical film is a world filled with spells, wizards, orcs, elves, fairies and more. On his 16th birthday Ian is given a gift left by his father. A spell that will let him meet him for only one day. Unfortunately the spell only half works and him and his brother have to go on a quest so make him whole before time runs out. The movie is funny, sad and heartwarming without being too preachy. At times it can feel a bit familiar but overall it's another solid addition to Pixar's library. Unfortunately the film never had a chance at the box office because of the worldwide pandemic but I'm sure will be somewhat successful with vod and disc sales.

Budget: $200m
Domestic Box Office: $62m
Worldwide Box Office: $103m

I don't know why the aesthetic of this just doesn't quite rub me the right way. Maybe it just feels like an indication that Pixar is out of ideas in terms of crazy new worlds to show us? Regardless of that gripe, this was still a good film.

Tom Holland and Chris Pratt voiced the two brothers in the film and they fully melted into their characters. You would think these two MCU and Parks and Rec stars would be extremely recognizable, but I only noticed it was them for the first couple of scenes. From them on I was nicely immersed in the adventurous plot this movie has. What was particularly nice about said plot is that nearly every problem the main characters face throughout it related to their relationship as brothers in some way or another. Whether it was the elder teaching the younger something, the elder learning to not underestimate the younger, or the two of them coming to fully trust one another, the core of almost every obstacle they encountered on their grand journey tied back into a different aspect of their brotherhood. It shouldn't come as any surprise that Pixar nailed all the feels in this one. One aspect of the film that felt a little half-baked was the mother's b-plot of chasing after her children. It didn't service the story at all and had one equally half-baked payoff. It makes sense that a mother would go after her children like she does, but I just wish her story was given another beat or two. The way it is just makes it seem like an obvious, weak, insert character for any parents watching with their kids. Onward feels like a film that had a lot of hands on it throughout its writing process. Several side characters come off completely unnecessary and a few plot points just don't feel fully developed. It doesn't help that the films aesthetic isn't quite for me. That said, Pixar nailed what it almost always does in terms of beautiful animation and main character beats that result in many not-so-dry eyes. Definitely worth watch if you already have Disney+.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Onward was highly disappointing. The story teller(s) was out of touch with their audience, their characters, their setting, and their motive. For a movie about wonder and enchantment, those seemed more like buzz words than anything else. The magic lacked demention and structure. The pacing was unpredictable and the jokes suffered because of this. The characters were ungrounded and over simplified. Each one had a unearned character arc and convient circumstances. There was no true tension. Just "Problematic circumstances". It truly came across as a million dollar student film. Despite what I consider to be an incredibly poor Pixar movie, the moral of the story was touching. I actually cried at one point as I considered the burden of love and loss. This seemed to be the crescendo of the movie. But it was not well supported. It was a great concept that was poorly conceived. Overall, I am questioning my loyalty to my lifelong devotion of Pixar. The movie I saw yesterday does not match up to the movies of Pixar's past. Unfortunately, Onward seems to be following a recipe without understanding the ingredients. I have to believe it can do better.… Expand

It’s still probably one of the best animation studios working today but I have noticed a slight decline in the quality of their films since 2011. Not to say their films from 2011 on are bad (except Cars 2), they just aren’t as good as their films from the 90’s and 2000’s. I would say Pixar’s last truly great films would be Inside Out and Coco and unfortunately, their mediocre streak is carrying over into this decade. Onward is a very mixed film for me. On one hand, I liked the animation, music, 3rd Act, and themes of brotherhood but I also didn’t like the first two acts and the characters. Characters are essential to making a Pixar film interesting to watch and I found the characters here not that interesting. Pixar has a fantastic track record for making interesting characters such as The Parr family from The Incredibles and Remi from Ratatouille. I’m not comparing the characters from those movies to the ones in Onward but I’m just trying to make a point that Pixar is very capable of making great characters but for some reason, they couldn’t do it here. I do like the brotherhood message that they share but that’s really about it. I didn’t find any of them relatable nor did I find myself interested by their actions. They change as people but it didn’t follow an interesting path. They just kinda changed suddenly and without question. The build up to the 3rd Act of the film was slow and dull to me. I wasn’t interested in the adventure at all and it felt like it took a really long time before the 3rd Act started but after that point, I found myself enjoying the film which is a shame because I finally started to enjoy the film when it was about to end. The final action scene used the environment well and was enjoyable to watch and the realization that Ian has was good. I just wish the lead up was much much more interesting. That’s not to say there weren't other factors that I liked about the film. Obviously, the film looks fantastic. This is something that has remained consistent with almost every Pixar movie. The visuals are spot on and the locations look really good and somewhat realistic for a fantasy world. I also thought the music was great. It was the only thing I really noticed during the first two acts and some of the music in the 3rd act can/do have the potential to bring some to tears. Overall, Onward is a step down in terms of characters and interesting stories for Pixar but it still retains its great visuals and music streak going.… Expand

It didn't seem to overwhelming or underwhelming compared to other past Pixar movies, so to look at it independently from the studio seems fair. TheIn all honesty, this was a very good movie and yet another great story brought to us by Pixar. It didn't seem to overwhelming or underwhelming compared to other past Pixar movies, so to look at it independently from the studio seems fair. The movie does display good uses of technical film techniques, it allows character expansion and realization on a broad platform, while also conserving the characters to be consistent throughout the movie. The plot however moved along to fast, personally, as it skipped through major character development in just hours. They describe the "mastery of wizardry" as something incredibly difficult and straining, yet contradict that point as the main protagonist does so in less then a day. If the movie hadn't been part of Pixar, it'd receive a higher rating, but due to it being from Pixar, it doesn't seem to stand out or prove any better than any average film

Onward was a more predictable movie from Pixar. The story is bit slow to start. I like that they kind of mix modern versus fantasies worlds. Doesn't always work well. The action is very good in my book. And the ending is very touching. I amOnward was a more predictable movie from Pixar. The story is bit slow to start. I like that they kind of mix modern versus fantasies worlds. Doesn't always work well. The action is very good in my book. And the ending is very touching. I am not entirely sure that this is for children. It more for young adults. In that sens some elements of humor and reference are aimed to an older generation, who played D&D. I give it 72%.… Expand

“Onward” is another Pixar classic; an emotional, imaginative, hilarious, and well-intentioned road-trip quest. As an older brother myself, the film absolutely hits home.
