 If you thought Pixar's Elemental looked like Hot Trash, you're not alone. I did as well. Thankfully, that wasn't the case at all. Yes, it is kind of a generic story-wise Romeo and Juliet set in this Elemental world, but that's really where the fault ends. Even though it's paint-by-numbers, it has great performances, absolutely stunning visuals, some solid lead characters. It's just a fun rom-com for the whole family. I wouldn't sleep on this one. Be like me. Go out and see it. Show the support. We need original stories, not these crappy retreads over and over again. Elemental is absolutely worth your time, even with the somewhat terrible up-short before the film started.
