My unpopular opinion is that Up has an amazing 10/10 opening sequence, and is a 5 (at best) for the rest of the movie. Talking dogs, a weird cartoon bird, standard Disney kidschlock.
I would respectfully disagree. Spoilers ahead for a 16 year old movie.
I think while the rest of the movie has some fantasy elements and requires some suspension of disbelief, it's ultimately about Carl's personal growth and being able to figuratively and literally let go of his wife's death.
Also, when Ellie died, it was like Carl's social life died with her. By the end of the film, Carl becomes a part of the community instead of angry and isolated. In the at way, it's also about a found family with him becoming a father figure to Russell and taking in Dug.
Ratatouille on the other hand...
Exactly.
No, I think that's a common opinion. I share it.
I don't know about that. Try saying that on Reddit, and you'll be down voted to oblivion.
I liked the whole movie, but I'm not downvoting people who have your opinion haha. What a petty reason to downvote someone.
