Up (2009)

Okay, first of all, let me start off by saying that whenever I asked a person how this movie was they said, almost every single person, "good, but sad." And that's exactly what it is. The opening scene was really upsetting, I couldn't contain myself. Tears were flowing out of my face like a fountain. However, at the same time, certain scenes and phrases would make laugh so hard. SQUIRREL. But then, they had to go right back to another sad scene. Basically, what I'm trying to say is that it was too sad to be a little kid's movie. I mean, if I were a five year old child, I wouldn't want to watch a movie where I cry more than half of the time. I was crying more than I was laughing, and that shouldn't happen for a Disney/Pixar movie. My mother enjoyed it, and so did my sister and I, I just feel like it was in the wrong genre. Just because a movie is animated, doesn't mean that it's automatically directed towards younger kids. Of course, many probably enjoyed it. Personally, I liked it. It could have done without all of the sad parts, but then again, that's what made the movie.
