This movie is good for PG. G would be too soft for this Pixar movie due to the violence that is given during the "final battle" of the movie. A gun? Siriously? A gun? That wasn't needed for Charles Muntz to defeat Carl and gang. Take out the violence (also the scene where Carl hits a guy and he bleeds badly.) and you've got a G movie.
Makes you cry, makes you laugh, makes you want to give the elderly a big hug.
One of the best Pixar flicks. Everyone one who watches will feel like Disney hasn't lacked on it's reputation on good quality movies. I recently saw it with about 200 other kids at a school thing and not one laugh was spared from a single person. Parents will be pleased to know this movie is very kid-friendly and acceptable to most age groups. A talk about dyeing may be needed before watching, because of how the love of Carl Fredricks life dies in the begging (of old age). Carl gets a tad bit violent for a second in the begging when he gets in an argument with a construction worker and bonks on the head with his cane. Unlike most movies, his actions are not excused as an ambulence has to come and Mr. Fredrickson is forced to move into a retirement home (which he ends up backing out of, but it still shows kids bad actions will not go without punishment.)
It wasn't really my favorite movie, I really wanted to leave the theature, but it was my mothers money, so do our dismay we both stayed. It was extremely depressing for me at the beginning, with the good friends, then dating, then miscarage, then sickness, then death. I was really bummed (I may spoil some of the story, be careful when reading) Then he's old, and hits a man with his cane (I think blood is shown) and so they try to get him into 'the home' (to there suprise that wasn't all that went down) Well anyway, it was cute I guess, but a tad boring, and when that guy had those skulls in his blimp and tried to shoot the main characters I was freaking out! Although, somethings were funny, like the dog with the collar that made his voice sound funny! That was one out of at least 3 things that got me laughing. I still say its pretty sad.
Watched the movie "UP" Tonight, This has some great messages about friendship and loyalty, But also has some sad moments too,I doubt many 8- will really understand who is who and what is happening. I would not recommend this to anyone looking for a fun trip to the movies with littler kids...
An enriching movie with exciting and enticing scenes, funny jokes, and beautiful relationships. Sad in the beginning but it cheers up after awhile. I especially love the relationship between Russel and Carl. A bit scary at the end. But a good happy ending. One of my favorite movies.
This film was okay. A lot of people loved it, though. There's more violence in this film than most Pixar films. Also, I think there was some blood. Other than the violence, this is a friendly movie.
I fell in love with this movie when I saw it (not in 3D). This movie has a little violence, but it's not too scary. I think the scariest part was when Carl and Munz fight with swords, no big deal though.
What the hell? I went into this movie thinking I was gonna get an enjoyable 2 hours of funny, educational stuff. What was basically the first thing that happened? A married couple lose their child, the woman dies, and the man is very depressed. I thought I'd walked into the wrong movie. I know it's a sensitive issue, and I would respect it in another movie, maybe not one that's mainly aimed at kids. I actually saw parents taking their children out of the cinema, and afterwards, people were demanding refunds. I think Disney/Pixar made the wrong decision putting all that depression in the first ten minutes. Kids won't understand what it means, but it was still a pretty bad theme for an animated movie. It was probably Disney/Pixar's worst movie opening since Wall-E, which was so boring. I lost faith in Disney/Pixar's movies until Toy Story 3, when they definitely saved themselves. Anyway, roll on Cars 2.
This is one of the best movies I've seen in a while it's funny and friendly except the old man near the beginning but he has reason for it, Which makes it kinda sad.
Man, I just didn't like it. It depressed me a little. . and, I wouldn't let my kids see it if I was you. . for some it may be good, but to me it was horrid! I couldn't wait to get out of the movie theater! It wasn't exactly 'inapropreate' it just bored and saddend me.
