‘Up’, Up And Amazing!
David and I finally made it out of the house last night to see Up. After hearing so many good things about the film, we were both curious to see if the movie actually lives up to the hype. I’ve mentioned before … I had my doubts about WALL·E when it came out last year and was pleasantly surprised to learn that I loved it! I was hoping the same would be true for Up … and I was right:
Up has to be the most delightfully charming film that I have seen in a very long time. You can tell from the first 5 mins. of the film that it will be a truly spectacular movie. I was reticent to believe that I would fall prey to the emotional pull of the film … but it deffo grabbed a hold of my heart strings and tugged at them thruout the film. I understand it took 3 years for the story to get just right before they even animated the film … and it shows. While there are small plotholes that bothered me (eg. the age of the villain, seemed to me he should’ve been much older and less spry) the overall movie just ruled. If you haven’t seen Up yet … go see it. Do yourself a favor, spring the extra $$$ to see it in 3D … you won’t be sorry.
While we loved the film itself, the digital short that showed before the film was terrible. I didn’t like it at all … go figure.
No big plans for tonight … some errands to take care of, a haircut and prolly an iPhone upgrade. Happy weekend!
