Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe film is based on director Peter Sohn's life with his parents immigrating to the USA from Korea - not speaking English and settling into the Bronx. Sohn's family also opened a grocery store named Sohn's Fruits and Vegetables - similar to Ember's family in the film.
- GoofsWhen Ember leaves for the date at Alkali theater, she's wearing a jacket with a hood. After the date when she and Wade enter the elevator, the jacket is gone and the hood is now part of her dress.
- Quotes
Ember: Dad... this is all my fault. The shop, Wade.
[breaks down]
Ember: I need to tell you the truth. I don't want to run the shop. I know it was your dream, but it's not mine. I'm sorry.
[holds the blue flame in the lantern; sobs]
Ember: I'm a bad daughter.
Bernie: Ember, the shop was never the dream. You were the dream. You were always the dream.
Ember: [feeling touched by her father's words; she hugs him; still sobbing] I loved him, Dad.
- Crazy creditsAt the end of the credits, there is a blue flame shrine that pays tribute to Pixar animators who all died in 2022 or 2023: Ralph Eggleston, Thomas Gonzales, Amber Martorelli, and J. Garett Sheldrew.

Featured review
People are reading wayyyy too much into this movie. It's an animated movie so chill. I never even saw a trailer for this movie before watching so I had no clue what it was about. Pretty standard kids movie with fun quirky characters. Every one reminded me of some one I know. I wasn't really into the first half of the movie but the second half really picks up. The visual effects team crushed it on this one. I mean they really made it look cool. I think people are going a little hard on Pixar right now. It's really not easy making a movie this social climate so hats off for even trying. We thought it was good and my daughter loved it.
