Elio - Reviews

...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.

...will charm children more than it will entertain adults.

Schmaltzy yet sincere, “Elio,” the latest from Pixar, is as predictable as they come but as tender as they can get.

...refreshingly weird

Despite its tight runtime, Elio also manages to take time to marvel at the very real wonder of space exploration.

Elio’s best trait is the one that permeates every truly great first-contact story.

...opts for a more specific and personal worldview — one that might just leave parents and children alike looking up at the nighttime sky with a whole new perspective.

Fun as it is, Elio just goes for the montage, eager to speak a universal language.

Pixar’s goofy, giddy guide to the galaxy offers charm and vulnerability.

...I simply like Elio more than I love it.

...packed with dazzling animation, clever jokes, and moments that tug at your heartstrings...

...as an air conditioned respite for children during the hot summer months, it’s worth traveling to.

...is familiar territory for Pixar – but still plenty of heartwarming fun.

...despite its otherworldly setting, Elio's story is fairly straightforward, though references to ham radios, Voyager 1, and Carl Sagan's reflections on extraterrestrial possibilities give the movie a warm, early 1980s vibe.

Fullt av innovativa animationer och rymddrömmar strösslade med stjärnstoff, följer vi med den föräldralösa pojken Elio på ett äventyr som bjuder på både skratt och sorg i väl avvägda doser.
