UP!

What is this? A kid's movie with the underlying theme of death and regret. I have never been more depressed in my life. Sure there were a few small humorous moments that broke the tension, but c'mon! While the colors were great (especially on blu-ray) this is more of an adult story that got stuck in animation. While the length is ok, I can't imagine kids being able to sit still for the full 96 minutes. The idea behind these new animated movies is that while it is entertaining to kids, adults can also take something away from watching it. This definitely has a theme for adults but it is a long and drawn out depressing one. If you are only so-so on cartoons anyway- definitely pass on this!

The Ugly Truth

The Ugly Truth is a pretty typical comedy about two people who fall in love that are completely wrong for each other. The movie was overall entertaining but a bit long with long stretches between funny parts. Anyone who is easily offended should also stay away from this movie although the dirty humor is also pretty smart. DVD comes out tomorrow!

Zombieland

So, this is pretty late because I know the movie's been out for a while, but I just finally saw it tonight with Chase. This movie was actually really good. I was very surprised. It was a perfect mix between horror and hilarious comedy. The only thing that sucked was the time- it was only 1 hour 20 minutes long! They did a good job though of building the story and unveiling the rules of surviving in Zombieland even in such a limited amount of time.

This is definitely one to see in theaters- but hurry- it won't be out much longer!
