UP

So I first must apologize.  I saw this movie early yesterday morning, but I have not posted this until now for a few reasons.  1.  I got Lazy.  2.  I wanted you all to check out the blog under this one, about the movie Anvil:  The Story of Anvil, and 3.  I still am a little unsure about how I felt about UP.  So here’s my review fans!

Dear Pixar,

            I salute you.  You have a done many things right in this world, and I think UP was your best yet.  Now keep in mind executive of Pixar, I am not a fan of animation movies.  My favorite animation movie is Persepolis because it was creative, and innovative.  I think all animation movies are the same, and now they all have the word 3D in their title.  That’s besides the point here’s what I liked about up.  In the weirdest way possible this movie actually seemed real.  You used normal everyday humans beings like Russell, and Carl to be your main characters.  In all your movies in the past that had humans as main characters they had super powers, so this aspect of the movie was refreshing.  It was refreshing that Russell was Asian American.  So often we see either white people or African Americans, but never Asian Americans as the lead roles in animation movies.  This truly was a remarkable feat I thought, and made me enjoy the character of Russell that much more.  If I had any beef in the movie it was that I heard Carl say the world Russell at least 50 times.  If you watch the trailer the sound engineer uses the same “Russell” twice, and he does it 3 times in the movie.  Not that big of a deal, just thought you should know for Toy Story 3.  Don’t say Woody all the time Ok, its perverse, and annoying.  Thank you for your time, and know that this movie evoked every emotion I think I have, so well done.

There truly is nothing bad to say about this movie.  My favorite character was Doug the dog.  He just always provided comic relief and that was really refreshing.  Parents notice the rating of this movie PG.  I personally would not take a kid to this movie if you have not had talks about death, divorce, parental separation, and miscarriages.  You could take them and hope they don’t notice, but there are some major questions to be asked if you have a curious kid as to why certain things happened.  Other than that brilliant movie that is definitely for a family even if animation isn’t your thing.  Go see UP in theatres because the Big Screen makes the movie come alive.  I give this movie a…
