Review by lunalovitt

Elemental

6/10

It's cute

I think we can all say there are some serious Zootopia vibes to this movie and it clearly shows, though it is at least different enough in some aspects that it's not too similar at the end of the day. The visuals are quite nice and the way the characters move in response to their element is a decent touch. This movie had its moments that made me smile which is a plus in my opinion, but I don't think it's something I'd sit down and watch again for the laughs.

The overall plot is a little outdated. It's literal opposites attract, which already in of itself is a bit of an eye roll. Ember being fire with a temper is a little too on the nose with Wade being overly emotional and crying all the time getting annoying at various points in the movie. The immigrant story is what's supposed to stand out, and it does to a fair degree, but it does get outshined by the romance aspect towards the end.

It's a solid film, if not a little too basic. That last joke by the fire dad at the end though, that made me giggle.
