The latest release from Pixar Studios, Elemental is a play on the classic theme of opposites attract. Set in a world where the elements of nature have been anthropomorphised and two opposing elements (fire and water) fall in love, it explores romance and relationships, along with ethnic and generational hang-ups. And while all of that sound close to what we'd expect from this studio, the box office (and reviews) have been underwhelming. We watch it for ourselves, and discuss whether it worked for us, and why it doesn't seem to have landed as well for others.
