‘Luca’ review: Pixar makes a movie for kids instead of sad-sack adults
NY Post
Occasionally, Pixar actually makes a kids’ movie. Sure, the animation studio’s entire library is supposedly meant for little ones, but the films so often turn out more like Psychology 101 class, delving into an adult’s hunt for purpose (“Soul”) or the functions of the human brain (“Inside Out”) with the goal of making nostalgic millennials cry.
In a welcome change of pace, its latest enjoyable flick, “Luca,” is seeking the approval of tykes — not Carl Jung. The film, premiering Friday on Disney+, is not as action-packed, epic or thinky as many recent Pixar offerings, but it’s admirably simple and has a lot of heart.More Related News
