Wow. with this flick Pixar underlines its leading position in animation movies.
Great movie for the whole Family.
Real existing story with nice music and a lot of fun.
Enjoy it! Must see in Full HD and minumum 5.1
Great movie !
During the past month I've made a point to see all the movies nominated for the Academy Awards, Best Picture. Tonight, I am absolutely heartbroken that this wonderful movie received not a single nomination in any category. I tis just tragic!
This fantastic movie should have at least(!) received nominations for Best Picture, Best Makeup and Best Actor (Forest Whittaker).
I have mixed feelings on this. I mostly agree with @ketu except for the Blonde scientist (played by Catherine Lemieux); I find her abrasive and thoroughly unwatchable. When the monkey got her in the face I thought 'excellent, she's out' but no, not even a scratch (wtf, come on!)
Fringe was mentioned and I've heard elsewhere this compared to and touted as the next Fringe. It will never be Fringe. Fringe was lightning in a bottle. There is simply no potential chemistry here like it, and Walter is so unique in both character and performance. These characters are very flat and the nature of the contained environment leaves little development for our 'heroes' that won't slip into soap opera territory.
There was some good dialogue, the exposition wasn't grating, though the 'working with the ex-wife' is amongst the handful of clichés here. I like the main guy (played by Billy Campbell), I think his performance is quite good. I think the make up effects are good, the CGI monkeys were cool though some of the other CGI is a little wonky (the shot where they were walking from the helicopter to the complex was bad).
I'm hoping this show develops into something with some balls. It's seeded enough interesting points that it may, but stretching this out beyond a season (13 episodes?) seems like a push to stay interesting.
Come on May 26th!!
A great movie but transparent ending. Still worth a watch and a recommendation.
To me the best movie of 2011 - it's
