Overrated and a Disgrace to Pixar

Rating: 1/10 (14 June 2009)

I came into the movie with an open mind to the story and movie in general. I expected great things because Pixar has made some of the best animated movies ever. The only thing I actually enjoyed about this movie was the plot setup, as the first five minutes of the movie were very sentimental. However, this great setup was quickly turned over by countless ideas that were not appealing at all. I may have laughed only once in the entire movie as the humor could only be funny to small children. It saddens me that this movie could have been great but I was clearly the wrong target audience.
I do not recommend this movie to anyone over 10 years old, anyone with a good taste of humor, or anyone who wants to keep their opinion of Pixar in tact. Up is nowhere near as good a movie as anything else Pixar has created because those other movies captured the eyes of a variety of audiences.
I have no doubts that all the other fantastic reviews of this movie have been written by family oriented people or Pixar employees.
