A Micro-Review of a Movie from Last Year

Because I’m sure you care, I finally watched that Up movie and I didn’t really think it was all that. For starters, that kid was annoying as hell. And the grumpy old man shtick accompanied by heroic revelation was somewhat predictable. To be fair the opening ten minutes was pretty magical. And I too like talking dogs! But I dunno. At least I found it surprising, unlike the tedious plot of a Toy Story or similar. I can honestly say I did not know what was going to happen. And isn’t that the most for which one can hope?
