Onward（《二分之一的魔法》）是2020年最值得期待的皮克斯动画电影之一。影片讲述了精灵兄弟为了让父亲重生，而踏上寻找魔法的征程。它颠覆了传统的魔幻动画电影，融入了一丝20世纪80年代的怀旧气息。Onward由Kori Rae制作，Dan Scanlon担任导演。“小蜘蛛”Tom Holland携手“星爵”Chris Pratt为本片亲“声”演绎精灵兄弟二人。

“Long ago， the world was full of wonders and adventures” starts the opening voiceover， going on to detail how mundanity has now replaced magic. Fortunately for us， Onward， after a rather slow start， proves Pixar still practises merriment and wonderment.
When the film opens in the fantasy suburban settlement of New Mushroomton， we meet Ian and Barley Lightfoot （Tom Holland and Chris Pratt）， two teenage elves who live with their mum， Laurel（Julia Louis？鄄Dreyfus）. Their father passes away when Barley is young and Ian is not born. But now， on his 16th birthday， Ian receives a present in which his dad instructs that Ian is to be saved for this very day： a wizard？蒺s staff and a Phoenix gem. Say， the included period and their dad will materialise for 24 hours. That the Phoenix gem will break halfway and their dad only appear from the waist down， means the brothers must urgently find another magical stone in order to meet their dad？蒺s top half.
Up until this point， Onward then grows ever brighter as it hits the road. Like timid and straitlaced Ian， it blooms in confidence and becomes filled with magical powers. Naturally， the brothers meet
