A New Pixar Adventure To Cry For (Disney Pixar's Onward)

-


Can anyone name a Pixar movie that hasn't made you cry or made you feel warm inside? (Except Cars 2) I'm sure you cant. Pixar has a history of making some of the best 3D animated movies and they have done it again with their latest release, Onward directed by Pixar alum, Dan Scanlon.

The new Pixar feature is based on the modern day lives of fantasy creatures like elves, unicorns and mermaids. The main story is about an 16 year old elf named Ian Lightfoot who has never met his father and has always wanted to live up to him. He learns that his father had left him in his brother, Barley a magical staff that can help them bring him back for one whole day and so the adventure begins. I shall tell you more for I will be spoiling.

Onward is the perfect addition to Pixar's ever growing roster of kid friendly movies that not only give you laughs and make you cry but also give you a new perspective in life. Onward may seem a tad similar to one or two previous Pixar movies but it shows that the familiar formula still works.

Tom Holland and Chris Pratt are the perfect pair to play brothers. People will happen to relate to both Ian and Barley in every way possible. These band of brothers are hard to forget and their relationship not only grows in this movie but also redefines who siblings really are to one another.

The animation of Pixar continues to set a bar in 3D animation for that visuals in Onward are breathtaking and the details are perfect. Directed by Dan Scanlon who happened to make the least inspring Pixar movies in my book has finally made his name worth popping up again in possible future feature for that his work for Onward was both his most personal and best work yet.

Coronovirus may be a common avoidance these days but for the sake of Onward, wear a mask and put on hand sanitizer to get a chance to not miss this possible Pixar classic in the making. I will be rating Onward a 9/10 for that I love it a little too much and I would do almost anything to watch it again. Unfortunately, I won't.

P.S. don't forget to bring tissues when you watch this movie.

An Overlooked, Fun Marvel Adventure (The Marvels spoiler-free review)

-

  This is probably the closest thing to a Marvel team-up we will get for a while, and it is unfortunate that the drama within the media surrounding this film is based on reasons that are not progressive. However, that is not what we are here to talk about. The Marvels is the latest entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, bringing back Carol Danvers in her latest adventure with Nick Fury and some newfound partnerships with Monica Rambeau and Kamala Khan.  The Marvels is set 33 years after the first Captain Marvel movie, where Carol is still trying to save the universe and she thinks she's the only one who can. After the events of WandaVision, Monica is now working with Fury with her new set of powers in his new project called S.A.B.E.R. while Kamala Khan continues to be the giddy, new superhero that protects the residents of New Jersey but an unworldly event connects her mysterious bangle to both Monica and Carol. Due to this cosmic event involving the Kree supremacist, Dar Benn,

Loki season 2 (Full season review)

With Marvel in a sort of whirlpool of viewers not having consistent reception towards the content, they seem to be missing a very important and well-done part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Loki lives up to that statement with its second season. Despite its new writers and directors at the helm, the show still showcases the best parts of Marvel's storytelling.  Taking place immediately after the end of season 1, Loki is dealing with the shenanigans of the TVA and the involvement of Kang variants with the release of the multiverse. It is up to Loki and co. (consisting of Mobius, Hunter B-5, and Casey) to deal with the consequences caused by Sylvie. The show still continues to be a trippy, timey-wimey time travel adventure but adds the Marvel-ous flair that made the franchise so memorable. With new rules and problems being thrown in the mix to deal with, the sci-fi logic continues to be expanded upon, solidifying the greatness of the show.  Unlike most of the Marvel shows that dea

Confessions of A Bored Vampire (Abigail review)

  I know it has been a long time since I have written a review. So many movies I watched a little later because of school and work. But I am back with a review because I was much inspired to write again about this probable cult classic in the horror genre. Abigail is the new horror popcorn flick worth catching before the summer movies roll in.  The film revolves around a group of troubled misfits who are hired to kidnap a rich man's daughter to get a handsome amount of money, they are stuck in a house with a child vampire that hunts them down on by one in hopes of getting out without their blood being drained.  I will not reveal too much for it is a movie worth catching at your own time to just have a blast at the cinema. Abigail can be seen as just another cash grab for a B-grade-looking horror movie featuring an expensive cast, its quippy script and interestingly written characters, this vampire film isn't like others. Or at least it makes its own bitemark to an overdone conc
