Upside Down


IMDB
First time viewed: Yes
Current Release: Yes
Watched With: Tyler, Paul, Naomi, Amberly

It's a high concept fantasy world that allows for some spectacular visuals. The legwork required to justify the logic of the world is a little cumbersome but once you stop asking questions there's a nice little class divide romance here.

Jim Sturgess is just so gosh-darn sincere isn't he? The relationship between him and Kirsten Dunst is like an old disney cartoon, all surface. They meet and are pretty much just instantly soul mates. But the whole film is very much a fairy tale. Thankfully it's all the playing around with gravity and the visuals that keep you entertained. Without that, this would be a very average film.
