VINER OF BRITAIN: Elemental is preceded by a short film about an elderly widower and his dog, which I found suspiciously twee, while the film itself follows the current Pixar trend of almost-but-not-quite. The four elements are anthropomorphized, fire, water, earth, and air, and they all have a futuristic conurbation called Element City. In fact, Earth and air get a lot of a look-in. Fire and water are central to the tale, focusing on a family of fire people who live in a suburb of Element City and speaking Fire-ish.
