The first reviews for Disney/Pixar's latest, Elemental, are in, and while the reception has been more mixed-positive than outright negative, it's fair to say critics haven't been as enamoured with this movie as a lot of the studio's previous efforts.
With ten reviews counted (there's plenty of room for the score to fluctuate), Elemental currently sits at a just "fresh" 60% on Rotten Tomatoes.
The animation and voice-acting have come in for praise, but the story has received a lot of criticism, and even the more positive verdicts acknowledge that this is not one of Pixar's best.
Keep an eye on the score here, and check out a new clip below.
Disney and Pixar’s Elemental is an all-new, original feature film set in Element City, where Fire-, Water-, Earth- and Air-residents live together. The story introduces Ember, a tough, quick-witted and fiery young woman, whose friendship with a fun, sappy, go-with-the-flow guy named Wade challenges her beliefs about the world they live in.
Directed by Peter Sohn, produced by Denise Ream, p.g.a., and executive produced by Pete Docter, Elemental features a screenplay by John Hoberg & Kat Likkel and Brenda Hsueh with story by Sohn, Hoberg & Likkel and Hsueh. The film’s original score was composed and conducted by Thomas Newman.
Elemental opens only in theaters on June 16.
