What are you people talking about?The Emperor has no clothes!

Rating: 1/10 (29 June 2009)

Are people just brainwashed or stupid? This is the worst movie I have seen in a long, long time. If there isn't an entirely new generation of children afraid of dogs permanently I'll be very surprised. The lack of imagination is overwhelming. A grumpy old man - my, my, that's never been thought of before. A fat scout, how adorable. Absent father, what a surprise. The entire movie is about loss, that is all. First part is loss of innocence, then loss of a baby, loss of the hope of a baby, loss of wife, loss of will, loss of home, loss of father, loss of dreams. Then when by use of the balloons he does get to his dream place, no one, no one points out that he has to lose faith in the hero of his childhood, he is the explorer who had inspired him and Ellie to want to go to Paradise Falls in the first place! Now he is evil! He also has to be at least 100 years old!! Since Carl is supposed to be 78 and Muntz was his hero when he was 10. The time line is just all messed up, but the whole movie is so messed up. What a pile of junk! Evidently Pixar can put out anything and the clones will line up to praise it and see it, but I won't, never again. I felt robbed since it cost me $11 to see the 3-D version. It was no better. The problem was the plot.
