UP

CGI has played an important part in the 21st century. It has changed our expectations and how we view films today. However it is unfortunate that even though CGI has been a massive milestone in our film history and an incomparable success that the hand touched animation has almost become a rarity. CGI has a lot to answer for in that respect but every now and then a CGI classic springs out and surprises us all, UP definitely deserves a place in this category.
It conveys deep emotion and deft irony that leaves you feeling warm and fuzzy inside.
The first 10 minutes show the prologue to the protagonist, Carl Fredricksons life before we settle down to watch his prodigious adventure to the wilds of South America. Joining him on this colossal journey is stowaway and wilderness explorer Russel and a dog called Dug. When Carl comes face to face with his ultimate idol events turn and the battle begins to save the ones he loves.
This is an exceptional film and deserves 96 minutes of your full attention!! 10/10

Paul Blart : Mall cop

I have to say as a first post I hoped for something more sensational but that is the way the cookie crumbles.

Paul Blart : Mall cop, a Happy Madison production, Didn't really fulfil my expectations from a Sandler picture. To go from films such as Deuce Bigalow and 50 First dates to a film that looked like an excuse to party with some buddies was a bit of a tragedy.

Still, the first half an hour or so was Luke warm and very predictable comedy and yet as time went on Kevin James' comedic posterior stole the show.

I would call this your 'average slap stick, man likes girl but he's too much of a looser on every level to get her but does' kind of film. If you have time to kill and your not too worried about what your watching, this one's for you.
