Movie of the week: Onward
Full Disclaimer – we were absolutely balling at the end of this movie. Cried our eyes out and called our Dads.
Onward is about 2 Elf kiddos who get a gift from their dead Father, who passed away when one was still in the belly and another was super young. The gift is a staff that used to hold magic from way back in the day when Elfs used magic. Along with the staff is a spell for the kids to bring back their dead Dad for just one day.
The spell isn’t an exact science and it goes wrong, with just the bottom half of their Dad coming back to life. They then go on a quest to find another stone, to be able to bring back the other half of their Dad so that they can see him again. However, they only have 24 hours until the spell wears off.
What followed was a really touching movie, which brought forward to love of 2 brothers, kindness and all the family feels.
We absolutely love it and we definitely left with a smile on our faces.
