What does it mean to be a socially conscious movie?

Are these like movies that reflect on the inner working of society?

I have a soft spot for Joseph King of Dreams.

Although (I hope) it’s having a resurgence, whodunnits. Knives Out as a modern example, Clue, and Last of Sheila for some classics.

Tesla was the best magician all along.

Honestly, was surprised he was the lead actor in this movie; I thought he’d be too distracting or something. But I think he did a pretty good job.

I’ve watched her on different movies before (Top Gun and Sleepless in Seattle), but she was different level of beautiful in this movie.

I daresay she’s peak Meg Ryan in this movie.

I usually don’t check out trailers or read about movies before watching them. I didn’t plan to see this one in theaters, but a friend gave me a free ticket, so I went for it. I really enjoyed it! The animation was fantastic, and they portrayed the interactions between the different elements so well.

After watching the movie, I looked up some posts and discussions about it. Many people felt that the marketing didn’t accurately represent the story. Instead of being marketed as a forbidden love story, it should have focused on a parent’s love for their children and dreams, along with the beautiful city and its elemental residents. I agree with that sentiment.

Overall, it was a fun experience and definitely worth watching, especially if you appreciate great animation and a heartfelt story about nuances of family and dreams.
