UP Review
My sister and I recently went to see a movie about a curmudgeonly old white man who is bitter at the world following the death of his wife. When a fatherless Asian youth trespasses on his property the two become friends and the old man becomes the boy's mentor as they both find their way through a dangerous world. Sound familiar? that's because it's the exact same plot as Grand Torino. Nice work Pixar, I haven't seen plagiarism this blatantly obvious since Kim Kardashian copied JLo's ass.That being said, the animated version of Clint Eastwood's masterpiece has a lot to offer that was left out of the original including a talking dog, a flying house, and the first cartoon miscarriage. You hear that Clint Eastwood? A cartoon Ed Asner 1 UPped you and he didn't even have to get shot by gangmemembers to do it. Up gets 5 out of 5 stars.
