“Yeah!”

From Luca.

As a young sea monster, Luca (Jacob Tremblay) hiding from land monsters and trying to please his nervous mother (Maya Rudolph) and father (Jim Gaffigan). However, when Luca meets Alberto (Jack Dylan Grazer), a young sea monster that lives on a deserted island, Luca finds himself pulled out of the water. Like all sea monsters, Luca experiences a change when he is dry where he transforms into a human until he gets wet again. While Luca is often nervous, Alberto is fearless and fun-loving, but both boys form a friendship over the dream of one day owning a Vespa moped. Luca spends his days playing on the island with Alberto, but when his parents find out that he’s left the water’s safety, they tell Luca that they’re going to send him to live with his uncle (Sacha Baron Cohen) in the ocean deep. Desperate not to be sent to the deep, Luca and Alberto decide to run away to the nearby human seaside village of Portorosso, Italy to live find a Vespa and set off on limitless adventures. When the boys enter Portorosso, they discover that the villagers are intent on killing sea monsters, so they worry about staying dry. Trying to blend in is made more difficult by the stuck-up teen Ercole (Saverio Raimondo) and his goons (Lorenzo Crisci and Peter Sohn) who tries to push Luca in a fountain until the spirited Guilia (Emma Berman) rescues him from the bully. Luca and Alberto quickly learn about the upcoming Portorosso Cup triathlon that Guilia is desperate to win and finally beat the reigning champion, Ercole. When the boys learn that the prize could buy them a Vespa, they join Guilia’s team and stay with her and her father (Marco Barricelli) while they train. Desperate to stay hidden from humans and his parents, Luca tries to give everything to his training, but he quickly learns that life on land is more complicated than he imagined.

Pixar’s latest adventure offers viewers both a beautiful world and a refreshing story of friendship. The animation is fun and beautiful, but the story and cast are really the movie’s driving force. Luca shares an emotion-packed story that’s family-friendly in humor, monster representation, life-lessons, and adventure.
