Upside Down




Summary:
Adam and Eden fell in love as teens despite the fact that they live on twinned worlds with gravities that pull in opposite directions. Ten years after a forced separation, Adam sets out on a dangerous quest to reconnect with his love

Plot:
This wasn’t an incredible story, but the whole idea of the different worlds is so interesting and strange that it doesn’t even seem to matter. The story was cute, but simple, and if it wasn’t for the great setting it would probably be one of the most boring stories ever, but the setting throws in a wonderful twist that makes it all worthwhile.

Characters:
The characters in this movie are quite likable, but not very memorable, but again the setting seems to make up for this. There really isn’t very much to say about the characters.

Cinematography:
Exceptional. This is what made the movie. Everything about it was beautifully portrayed. The lighting and colors etc was very well handled throughout and the two different worlds’ moods were shown quite clearly.

Who should watch this:
(PG 13), there are some very mild mature content and violence. Anyone who likes movies about other worlds will probably like this too, for example 'Avatar', but without the cursing and the violence. Also anyone who can appreciate great cinematography should definitely watch this just for that.

My rating:
3/5, the whole idea made it worthwhile, but the story and characters could’ve been better.

Up-top, they always win, And down-below, we always fail.
