Good Not Great

Rating: 7/10 (1 July 2019)

Introduction:
Up is considered by many to be in the top five of the best Pixar films. However, Up for me, doesn't make my top 10. Don't get me wrong, Up is a good movie. I just don't think it's a masterpiece.
Thoughts:
The first ten minutes of Up are simply amazing, absolutely perfect, and can work as it's own short film. However, it's not a short film. It's a 90 minute movie. And the other 80 minutes is really just okay to me.
My biggest problem with the film is really the villain. For a company that has made such great villains, I can't even remember this guy's name. And the kid character is also a little dull. I think Carl is still a great character, and he's one of my favorite Pixar protagonists. The movie has a nice creativity to it, and it's very entertaining.
I like the animation of the film. The CGI backgrounds are very nice. The character models are cartoonish, and fit in this world very well. With bright colors to go along with it, the animation is great Pixar CGI.
I just think people blow out proportion, because of the first ten minutes. The first ten minutes is amazing, but the other 80 minutes is good, but not amazing.
Conclusion:
I like the movie. I don't think it's amazing, but I like it. I think the first ten minutes is a little too blown out of proportion.But the rest of the movie is still good. Up is in fact, a good movie, not one my favorites from Pixar, but still a great watch.
