Upside Down- Movie Review


Upside Down- Movie Review

It's a French-Canadian romantic science fiction film written and directed by Juan Diego Solanas

Cast - Kristen Dunst , Jim Sturgess , and others.



So sometimes you come across certain movies which bring forth a totally new concept , something u have probably never seen or thought of before but may be u had it at the back of your mind..that what if something like this happened.....how would things be then?....Now let's come to this "something" ...that this movie is about......

This movie speaks of a different solar system which has one sun (the usual ) and two planets with exact opposite gravitational forces on the exact different planes like twins revolving round the sun (like usual) .

There are 3 universal laws here , 1- People from each world are drawn by it's own gravity and not by the other twin planet's. 2-You can use trans materials i.e materials from the opposite planet to reverse the gravity.  3- These trans materials become heated very fast and can burn the object wearing them over some time..like an hour or so..
 Good concept right? But not an awesome story...it's a very good movie but not like u can say omg it's fucking awesome..

One of the two twin planets is rich, the other one is poor. A boy(named Adam) from the poor planet falls in love with a girl (named Eden) from the rich planet. As teenagers , they meet at the highest of points on a mountain and try to seek ways out to get to each other via a rope ..One day police officers shoot the boy at the arms while he was sending his girl back to her grounds .He lets the rope loose for which the girl falls and hits her head. Then there is a long 10 years gap. Next this guy discovers a secret anti aging formula (which was a secret to flying pancakes of his aunt Becky who used pink pollens from pink bees to make pancakes fly) .Pink bees were the only creatures who would make pink pollens which consisted of pollens from both the worlds. This pink pollen was the secret ingredient in the anti aging cream that the guy was making. He acquires a job on trial basis at the trans office (a link b/w both the worlds but only the highly qualified or people testing new innovations could join there) .He had reportedly seen Eden (his child hood love after 10 long years in a tv show and found out she was working at the trans office) .He while testing his anti-aging cream started to steal bars of trans materials (steel , iron etc) and stored them up at a secret place in the washroom. One day when he had enough weights he put those on and went to meet Eden working on the 7th floor. Now he thought she would immediately recognize him but she couldn't. He finds out that from that accident when she fell down as a teenager she had a case of amnesia and she can remember very less.However over time he gets her to know him by a different identity of his fellow old colleague (who gets fired soon after). He uses his id cards to get to the other world and to the 7th floor. One day Eden finds out the truth about Adam. During this time she remembers her dreams had some meaning and finally recalls events that she had forgotten of her teens that how she used to meet with Adam at the mountain top. They find other ways out with the help of that colleague of Adam who makes him a heat resistant jacket so that he wont burn with transmaterials during his stay on the other planet.

Here there are some fun scenes where they are climbing on one another's back , hanging, flying , etc.  And they ended up having sex ( nah.. no sex scenes are there in this movie .. -_- ya i know boring........buzzzzz)

One day again the police chases Adam out of the planet and Eden has to let him go.Soon after with Adam's formula of mixing liquids of two planets with pink pollen , they find out how to stay on another planet without transmaterials..

Eden tells Adam she was Preg that too with twins O_O ( can u believe it? this was soo stupid.. LOL..They can't even stay for more than an hour with each other and they are having sex .. OMG.. that was soooooo freakingly funny :-P  and like the planets are "twins" ..Kristen Dunst was preg with "twins" now that was quite a FUNNNNNY COINCIDENCE :-D )   So..  Adam and Eden keep on meeting , though only for a few hours and keep hoping to extend the time of stay with newer innovations .. but that's another story...( ya and i bet u Adam is still trying to figure out how to stay longer with Eden..but may be Eden is already busy sending her twins to school .. or may be she has forgotten whom she had sex with ..( she has amnesia remember? :-D looool ) and i bet u the sex was for such a short time, she couldn't have enjoyed enough to remember :-D .. cuz Adam can't stay for long on another planet ... .. lol .. :-P .. these bits made the film appear soo funny ..atleast to me.. thats my mind which started to think .. mmmm... n think....n think.... :-D ..oh another thing.. did u guys see these names?? LOL Adam and Eden.. it sounds like garden of Eden and Adam n Eve ... lol they could simply name the girl Eve ..instead of Eden .. it would appear a bit less funny :-P )

Anyways.. those weren't criticisms ..just bits of my thinking.. thats all ;-) and it's still making me laugh :-D and if there is a next part to this movie (i hope not :-P  LOL ) it would be about two inter planetary creepy twin kds ..OMG scary :-P

So this movie is very good when it comes to the concept but there are stupid tit bits in the movie which was kinda ......."stupid"  :-P    but yes definitely a very good watch if u are looking for something fresh and new..

3.5/5 and 3 is all for the concept..and point 5 for the storywithin..because  the story isn't exceptional .. but the concept is bang on!
Till next review ...i'll go buzzzz around and catch some pink bees to get some pink pollens , may be i can too galaxy travel then........  :-P ..... and guess what.. i just found that the site ive subscribed for delicious recipes has just sent the recipe of an "upside down" pineapple cake into my mailbox ..Oh Gosh this is soo weird and freaky and FUNNYYYYYY LOOOL :-D  -Zinnia

A trailer of the film for u guys..
