Watching all the Pixar Movies  – Up (2009)

For some lore on this review series

"Up" Pixar Movie Review
“Up” Pixar Movie Review

Up is another Pixar movie that I had actually seen prior. However I only watched once before a while ago and I don’t really recall liking it then. I think my initial thought was it was too much premise and not enough plot. I will say that was bad take to walk away with even at the time. However did my opinion of this movie changed on a second watch?

Watching all the Pixar Movies  – Wall-E (2008)

by

For some lore on this review series

"Wall-E" Pixar Movie Review
“Wall-E” Pixar Movie Review

Technically I have seen Wall-E prior to this blog review series. However the first time I watched Wall-E on small TV and I was half paying attention. The next two times it was put on in the background so again I didn’t really pay much attention. I think when the movie started I tried to watch it in earnest and then something distracted me away from the cute robot.  

So really the fourth time was really the first time I actually payed attention to this movie. And is Wall-E actually worth mine or anyone’s attention?

Watching all the Pixar Movies  – Ratatouille (2007)

For some lore on this review series

"Ratatouille" Pixar Movie Review
“Ratatouille” Pixar Movie Review

“I don’t wanna go to the Bad Place. It’s scary, like the movie “Ratatouille”…I ain’t trying to have rats living in my hat and pulling my hair to get me to do stuff.” -Jason Mendoza (The Good Place)

To be honest going into this movie I really wanted to like it despite the fact that it scared Jason Mendoza of The Good Place. Typically with movies I also want to like them. I’m not sure if I had heard mix things this about this movie over the years but I was both scared and excited to watch Ratatouille. 

I did know something about this movie going into it like most of the plot and that the rat cooks using a human puppet. Again I knew premise of the movie in broad-strokes by not the intricacies of the story or of the characters.

So did the movie meet my exceptions or did it serve only to waste my time?
