Not Pixar at it's best, but a middling film that represents the brand well and keeps hope alive until the next one. Elemental tells of a story that has been told a million times but in a world full of elements (no pun intended) that is creative and fun. I feel like so much could be told outside of ember and Wade, perhaps the film will work better as a series for the future much like what they have done with Zootopia. But unlike the Zootopia film, elemental simply has a weaker story and a weaker cast of characters to make the film more memorable. The film focused too much on the notion that elements don't match but at times loses focus on the other less featured elements.
