My four (few months shy of 5) year old and I loved this movie! She usually won’t sit through a whole movie without wanting to play or colour partway through unless it’s something she really loves (i.e. Frozen lol) but this movie held her attention start to finish. She told me she loves the fire girl the best haha. The animation was wonderful in 3D and she even let out some little gasps of awe and excitement which was adorable :’) This was her first movie in a movie theatre and she loved the experience! As the adult, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie as well. While it may not always have the most original storyline, I personally felt it stands alone and is unique in its own beautiful ways. The story this movie tells is so touching and it opened my eyes to a new perspective and lived experience. I honestly could relate to different aspects of it as a white woman who knows nothing of the struggles BIPOC face. I believe the message of love and following your passions while trying to balance the want/need to respect and honour those who have made it possible for you to chase those dreams is a universal one. No matter your race, sexuality, economic background - we all dream, we all love, we all hurt, we all experience loss and we all have fears holding us back. I personally lost track of how often I cried and my four year old even shed a few tears as well! If you can manage to keep an open mind through this, I highly recommend it. One of my new favs from this year for sure!
