Upside Down caught my eye when I went into the Google Play movie section. I clicked on it and watched the trailer only to be pulled in by the visuals and the imaginative world that had been created. The price for the HD version was only $12.99 so I said, "What the hey..." and took a leap. Being the logical and scientific thinking person I am I had to suspend my belief in every law of physics to enjoy this movie but to tell you the truth it wasn't hard to do with the visuals that are on screen. For an estimated budget of $60 million the visuals impress beyond that of many mega budget films. Anyway, this is a world in which there are two worlds on top of one another and connected yet not connected. If you come from one world then you are tied to its gravity. So two people can be standing on the tip of a mountain on either world and have a chat with each other standing above/below one another. It's an interesting concept that throws out physics but is fun to watch. The women will like this one for the love story and the guys will like this one for the visuals and the concept so you can even throw this one on as a movie that a couple can watch. All in all I enjoyed it a lot and

Upside Down is a film that sounds interesting (ignoring physics, of course), but proceeds to make just about every mistake in terms of plot and character development imaginable. The result is a boring, lifeless movie that even the most sensitive person won't care about. A complete and utter waste of an interesting concept. Beyond an interesting premise, this movie offers nothing.

The plot holes in this movie make it like swiss cheese. Though, there's one the size of Texas that's exposed very early. One of the "rules" of their worlds is if matter (everything is made of this!) goes to the other world, it heats up and combusts if it's on the wrong world too long. That gets thrown out VERY quickly. I seriously don't know how the eff this movie has a 4.1 rating.
