UP is a good movie…. beautiful to look at, funny at times, and touching at times. it's got a 98% rating on Rotten Tomatoes with 163 reviews in so far. that's unprecedented. i cannot see how anyone could come away from the film disappointed unless they thought they were taking their six-year old to a mindless cartoon aimed at six-year olds. this is an animated movie aimed at adults that kids can still enjoy. when the Blue Ray DVD comes out, it's going to sell alot of copies!

"Up" was wonderful and much, much better than the attempt at Green guilt/indoctrination that was "WallE" last year. Up was touching, funny, adventurous, and most of all, fun to watch. I plan to see it again in a few weeks and it is most likely one that I'll get on DVD too, unlike WallE.

Up was brilliant in that it's actually a story of a man's loss, grief, and ultimate acceptance of death and the need to move on – all of which is dressed up with talking animals and adventure. He uses his house as a symbol of his wife – thus actually 'dragging' her memory with him.

The movie actually accomplishes in 80-some minutes what Benjamin Button couldn't in nearly 3 hours.

I mean, I just can't get over how brilliantly the whole movie plays out. There's far more intelligent and thoughtful filmmaking at work here than in any of the 'best picture' nominees I can think of.

I saw Drag Me to Hell today, and I'm somewhat in agreement with Dirty Harry's disappointment. I don't regret going, but I can't say it's a must see either. I think the decision to make it a PG-13 was ill-advised. Admittedly the plot is very thin, but so were the plots to all three Evil Dead movies. Those movies made up for plot thinniness by crazyness and splatstick. There's some of that here but just not enough and it actually makes for a problem with the overall tone of the movie. Everyone in the movie plays things totally straight but it's pretty clear that a lot of the plot is meant to be tongue-in-cheek. That worked in the Evil Dead movies because the effects were so over-the-top so you knew what to think of the proceedings. Here it's just not clear whether or not you're supposed to laugh at things or take them as serious attempts to frighten. It also doesn't help that the ending is truly downbeat in a way that makes you wonder even more what tone they were trying to set. I will give a big thumbs up to Allison Lohman though. She's the best thing about the movie and she has a spark of Ash in her.

It's been a long time since I have truly enjoyed an animated feature for kids. I was so happy when my kids finally outgrew them. However, yesterday my 11-yr old son and I had some time to kill so we went to see "UP" (tragically he didn't want to see Star Trek). I thought it was great. It had some genuine laughs for adults and was a very original story (not just a bunch of animals acting human). The talking dogs was not a draw for me; what animated feature doesn't have talking animals. I thought Kevin, the old man, and the kid were all great characters, though. We saw the 3D version and I was appreciative of the fact that the movie wasn't centered around special 3D effects. There were some to be sure but it was garnish and not the main meal. It was the first time in a long time that I wasn't checking my watch during a kid's movie. No movie is for everyone, but I give UP a thumbs up.
