Subpar Pixar effort

Rating: 7/10 (12 November 2012)

This movie looks fantastic. When that's out of the way there is not much more to be optimistic about. the story is one of the lowest quality efforts from Pixar/Disney in their(Pixars) entire lifespan.
Without spoiling anything, it is safe to say that Pixar/Disney did not explore a completely fantastic and heartfelt story opportunity which even shows it self early on in the movie. Instead it turns into a Laurel and Hardy flick with no depth to reach the hearts of the audience.
Elements lending them selves to 25 years of gaming clichés does not help the over all expression. (Visps - you know it when you see it, they are in the trailer as well)
Following epics such as Wall.E and Up this feels awkward in many ways. Pixar might change lanes, they might not. Earning money by making sub-par productions has never opted a change of style though.
Pixar has run out of the famous "napkin movies", then made Up which turned out fantastic, hopefully they'll figure out how to "do it" again.
