Up (2009)

Up is a typical family oriented animation movie by Disney and Pixar which is great for anyone, regardless of their age. Altough it may seem illogical to transport a house using balloons filled with helium, but since this is a animated cartoon, it can be forgiven. The movie generally gives us a lesson on how priorities do change as we go on through life, and I see this movie as a good way to teach selfish people whom always figure that their priorities are the utmost important.

Although this movie is still a far cry from my all time favorite, The Lion King, it is indeed good enough to watch, and I have been asked to consider watching it in cinema's to get the full feel of the movie itself which to me, means "Its a movie which is worth to catch and enjoy without disturbance", and therefore, I'd suggest you watch it with your hand phone turned off, and your door clearly marking the "Do Not Disturb" sign.

Aliens In The Attic (2009)

When you know a movie is about aliens, and it involves animation, you must think, "Gosh... this must be a movie which would be full of laughter", and this is the case in this movie. It's a typical 'kids animated' movie. You have the good aliens, and the bad ones, with the bad human and the good ones. You also have the ignorant sister, and her boyfriend which in frequent cases or movies are a huge bully, and kids, running around doing 'their stuff'

While the movie itself may have a decent and predictable plot, but the comedic elements are worth to mention. There is nothing much to say about the movie, but for what's it worth... you would find it interesting. The only problem was.. it was just so predictable.

Charlie and Me (2009)

Charlie and Me is an enticing movie which everyone could see. It's about Charlie (Tom Bosley) which is the granfather of Casey (Jordy Bannater) and realizes that he is on the verge of death following a heart attack while going out for the movies.

With little time left to buy, Charlie embarks on a journey of living his life to the fullest with his grand daughter, and teaches her so many simple, yet meaningful along the way. With Charlie and Casey bonding very well together,Casey's dad (James Gallenders) felt outcast, and started confronting his father regarding his absence in his daughters life. With Charlie's life moving nearer to ending, things start to work out with Casey and her dad and you have to watch this movie to know what happened.

Anyway, the movie is one of the bet family oriented movies available, and I'd hugely recommend this movie to go with a box of tissue. I really love looking at Tom Bosley's acting here, and I have to admit that he puts the word 'grand' in granpa. A fantastic movie. Trust me.

Paul Blart Mall Cop [2009]


Paul Blart Mall Cop is a nice family movie. Despite having trailer which may seem to give the impression the the movie is largely based on comedy, my observation generally differs. The story line is strong and easy to understand, but there are moments when I feel that the movie could be greater.

On a positve note, I did enjoy the movie, but I do not think it is worth to see in the cinema. One thing special in the movie is the moves and also stunts made by the robbers whom display fantastic if not awesome extreme sport jumps and moves.

The ending was mediaroce, and rather romantic, but it will not give you 'the feel'. Overall, a decent movie, but it will not score any box office any time soon.
