ALL ABOUT MAGAZINE | REVIEW 7
Ever sent someone the wrong email? The
consequences can be horrendous. That’s what
happens to a comical alien called Oh, the star of
Disney Pixar’s animated adventure entitled Home.
Oh is a member of the Boov, an alien race that has
taken over Earth. He accidentally sends an email
to the Gorg, sworn enemies of the Boov, and upon
realising his error, attempts to sort the matter.
Oh, voiced by Big Bang Theory actor Jim Parsons,
makes friends with a little girl called Tip, played by
singer Rihanna. Tip, who stayed on Earth as the Boov
took over, is desperately searching for her mother,
voiced by Jennifer Lopez.
It’s a familiar theme of companionship and road
to discovery, beautifully told by the folks at Pixar in
faultless digital cartoon splendour.
Unlike some of the other big hits from this respected
studio, Home is more aimed at children. It doesn’t
push the same emotional buttons as, let’s say, Toy
Story or Up.
Nevertheless, should the summer sun disappoint
during the school holidays, it is agood way to keep
the little ones entertained for an hour or two.
