Pixar explores grief and belonging in a beautiful way.

Elio was better than I could’ve imagined. With likable characters, beautiful animation, and a message for everyone, I loved it!

Not the best Pixar movie ever, but cute with a good sense of dark humor. Was happy to support an original from Pixar

There is enough of a sense of awe here, and enough scale, that it brightens up the big screen as it stares into the ebony black of space. And if one child is instilled with a sense of cosmic wonder and channels that into a career probing the mysteries and poetry of the night sky, then Elio will have truly reached the stars.

As a story about children finding a place to belong, discovering their true sense of self and realizing that parents and parental figures love you even when they don’t always understand you, Elio is a lovely, if not particularly original story.

Schmaltzy yet sincere, β€œElio,” the latest from Pixar, is as predictable as they come but as tender as they can get.
