2QFH XSRQ D WLPH WKH ZRUOG ZDV ÂżOOHG ZLWK PDJLF and  wonder.  But  that  was  â€œonce  upon  a  time.â€?  Nowadays,  the  world  is  dull  and  boring  and  routine.  For  Ian  Lightfoot  (Tom  Holland),  school  is  a  drag,  the  dog,  err,  dragon  is  a  hyperactive  pest,  and  older  brother  Barley  (Chris  Pratt)  loafs  about  listening  to  too  much  hair  metal  and  playing  tabletop  role-­playing  games.  But  then  a  magical  staff  and  an  incantation  spell  show  up,  and  all  hell  breaks  loose.  Ian’s  dad  was  a  wizard,  which  means  Ian  might  EH RQH WRR $QG LI ,DQ FDQ ÂżQG D Phoenix  Gem  and  say  the  spell  correctly,  he’ll  be  able  to  summon  the  dear-­old  dad  he  never  got  to  meet.  â€˜Onward’  is  a  rote  story,  but  Pixar  tries  to  jazz  it  up  by  setting  it  on  a  fantasy  planet  populated  by  elves,  pixies,  dragons  and  manticores.  The  jabs  at  soul-­ consuming  commercialism  work  well,  as  does  an  exhilarating  chase  down  a  freeway,  but  with  so  little  at  stake,  the  desire  to  see  the  Lightfoot  brothers  succeed  takes  a  backseat  to  the  stun-­ ning  visuals  and  detailed  animation.  If  you’re  hankering  a  game  of  catch  with  dad,  â€˜Onward’  will  tug  on  those  heartstrings.  If  you’re  not,  then  at  least  the  pictures  are  pretty.  â€”MJC
