    Amazing

    A great film about siblings and the incredible bond they can share. I enjoyed every second, don't listen to the haters.

    Age doesn't matter, watch this movie!

    It's a fantastic movie! It might fall into cliches but that's what the movie is all about. It brings the sense of epic to the viewer and engage with their feelings. It's well balanced, as the movie emphasizes in the adventure aspect of it but without forgetting comic times as well as really touchy moments were you'll for sure be moved. It's a great movies that will introduce you to some aspects of role playing in a way you probably haven't thought before. Great for both kids and adults.

    Made me appreciate my brother

    This movie is pretty fast paced. The characters are always trying to get out of some kind of mess they created, so in other words you're never bored. I recommend you watch this film with your siblings. I'm a grown man and this film had me tearing up lol. Another great film by Pixar.

    Movie for boys where the price is love - bravo Pixar

    Doing a fulfilling movie for boys where the price of the quest is emotional wholeness and found love is a rare sight and not an easy task. Pixar succeeded by providing rich brotherly relationship, adventure, magic and finally love. It is much more a common message in movies for girls like Frozen, but I think that the magical combination of all the ingredients achieved by Pixar is important and entertaining at the same time. Wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone :)

    Hate it but not cause it is bad.

    I hated this movie because it hit me so hard. Lost my dad a while back and never dealt with all the things from that but this movie kinda drop kicked my feelings into the focus. Hard to watch a film with tears streaming down your face

    • Trivia
      One of the most iconic monsters in Dungeons & Dragons is the gelatinous cube. Imagined by creator E. Gary Gygax himself in the very first edition of Dungeons & Dragons in 1974, the gelatinous cube is a staple foe that players encounter early on in their adventuring. (It has an entry-level challenge rating of "2" in the current version of D&D. That's low.) The cube moves slowly but can be very dangerous once it gets close, as it absorbs victims and slowly digests them while they float helplessly inside.
    • Goofs
      When The Manticore is telling Laurel about the curse, she tears off her sleeves to reveal expository tattoos on her arms. However, when Laurel initially asks about the curse, The Manticore's left sleeve is already seen to be torn off as the tattoo is already visible.
    • Quotes

      Officer Avel: Last name?

      The Manticore: Manticore.

      Officer Avel: First name?

      The Manticore: The.
