Disney Pixar is back with a bang with its new animation Onward. It provides lots of laughs, giggles, and emotional moments too. On a personal level, when I was a teenager (age of Tom Holland’s character) I had a phase in which I was also desperate to meet my biological mother who passed away when I was only three. This movie tapped into those deep memories and made me emotional throughout the two brothers’ journey to bring back their late dad using old forgotten magic. It’s a must-see animation. Onward is released in UK cinemas on 6 March 2020.

The verdict

OH BROTHERS – In Disney and Pixar’s “Onward,” two teenage elf brothers embark on an extraordinary quest in a van named Guinevere to discover if there is still a little magic left in the world. Featuring Tom Holland as the voice of Ian Lightfoot, and Chris Pratt as the voice of Ian’s older brother, Barley, “Onward” opens in U.S. theaters on March 6, 2020. ©2019 Disney/Pixar.

In Disney and Pixar’s “Onward,” brothers Ian and Barley (voiced by Tom Holland and Chris Pratt) are given a gift that allows them to conjure their dad—half of him, anyway—for one magical day. Their subsequent quest to conjure the rest of him is filled with magic, impossible obstacles and some unforgettable moments. Directed by Dan Scanlon and produced by Kori Rae, “Onward” opens in U.S. theaters on March 6, 2020. © 2019 Disney/Pixar. All Rights Reserved.
A lot of the hilarious gags happen when the brothers drag their dad’s legs behind them like a little pet. Initially the half body was a bit awkward but once you get used to it, it provides lots of comedic moments.
