Onward

About This Movie

Onward is one of those films that really digs into the complexities of human emotion, even under the guise of a fantasy setting. It follows Chris, who’s been living in the shadow of truth for quite some time, and as he navigates this significant day with his partner, it all unravels. The atmosphere is layered, sometimes heavy, with a hint of hope that emerges unexpectedly. The pacing feels right, allowing you to breathe and take in the little moments that matter. The performances convey a genuine depth, capturing that struggle between what we want and what we need. It's a film that plays with practical effects in a way that feels grounded, a contrast to its more elaborate worldbuilding.
