1265-unthinkable

This is an action movie less on the chases and gunshots and more on emotions. It plays with your conceptions of nationalism and honor; terrorism and greed. The buildup of emotions is very clear (I was seriously terrified at the end) and the characters are very well introduced.

I really enjoyed this film. It's one of the best Pixar has ever produced.

The symbolism and imagery was really great.. and profound. A tear jerker too, if you have grand dads similar to Carl.

At first I thought this was just any boring chick flick. At a running time of two hours and fourteen minutes, anyone is inclined to do so.

But this is a very engaging movie to say the least; sure there were boring parts but Ms. Julia Robert's beauty made up for it, which together with her acting makes it a must-see for any of her fans.

The story is significant on some levels, and I think it hits the right note for those adults undergoing pre-midlife crisis. For me it's just too mature but hey, eating praying and loving are universal human activities.

The movie left me satisfied, and I think it ended beautifully (though very cheesy).

I really enjoyed how they approached technology in this film. I've watched a lot of movies in this genre but I think this was the most well-thought, prepared and made.

422-shutter-island
It's incredible at how emotionally detached the film seems to make audiences feel and yet it narrates its story in such an engaging way. I'd recommend it not for the plot twists, but for the drama and the conclusion. And the sets, the costumes, etc, etc.
