ElioEmmett Alexander9.6· June 30, 2025Followthis movie was cute! it made me cry, the music was fun, and unlike most, I really love the art style! You can definitely tell there were issues behind the scenes, and I’m very curious to know just how drastically different the original film was, but overall I’m not upset about what we got. I liked Elio as a character a lot, and his loneliness and feelings of not belonging were relatable for sure, but I kind of wish we knew more about his life prior to the start of the film. like, I wish we knew a little more about his parents. the detail about them also speaking Elioese (idk how to spell it lmao) was so sweet, I would’ve liked to learn a little more. I also would’ve liked more scenes with him and his aunt, but again, I’m not unhappy with what we got. their reunion on the beach made me tear up 🤧 I was a little worried Glordon would be annoying but I actually really liked him, and his dad swaddling him at the end also made me cry. also, I was kind of hoping we’d see his mom in one of the credit scenes, but it’s fine we didn’t, I suppose. this review is kind of all over the place but oh well lmao overall, I really liked the movie!! while I have enjoyed most of Pixar’s recent films, I haven’t felt a strong urge to rewatch any of them, but I’d definitely rewatch Elio✨👽💚CommentsSign in to react and join the conversation.Sign inGet the app
