Here’s a movie for dog lovers, the elderly, children of divorce, FOBs (Friends of Birds), stale Boy Scouts, people yearning for adventure, and anyone who has ever loved… and lost. Up is for everyone. It made me laugh out loud, and it made me sob.

I understanding it would be tough for Up to match the emotional power of Wall-E. The two Pixar films are similar in their lack of dialogue in the first act, which helps deepen the emotional impact. Up begins with Carl, a skittish young boy star-struck by a famed explorer; and kookie Ellie, who has a similar obsession. The two kids become rapid friends, and direct to one day depart to Venezuela’s Paradise Falls. After getting married, they retract their dream home and fix it up, hoping to own it with children. Carl and Ellie’s life together from childhood through worn age is depicted, silently, with delicacy and subtlety. The first 15 minutes is like a celebration of a overjoyed marriage, and you truly feel Carl’s harm when he is left alone. He sits slumped in his chair, talking to the house as if it is the missing Ellie.

When developers stop in on Carl’s beloved home, he decides to fulfill his promise to Ellie and recede to Paradise Falls. A old balloon vendor, Carl lifts his home with hundreds of bright balloons. Stowing away on the porch is Russell, a fat, brave kid trying to derive a scouting badge.

After landing in Paradise Falls, the musty man and the exiguous boy are joined by a golden retriever named Dug who can talk with his collar, and a mountainous rare bird that bonds with Russell (he names her “Kevin”) . Dug is priceless: spot-on for every dog that ever lived, including an obsession with squirrels. Through a series of halt calls and adventures, the quartet vanquishes a villain, saving the day. And Russell earns his scouting badge.

In the process, Carl learns to let go of his dim mourning for Ellie, and live life again. When this happens, a truly magical thing happens. Before, Carl’s craggy face is gray and monochromatic. At the moment of his transformation, Carl’s face is awash in color, and he is surrounded by radiant hues. It reminded me of The Wizard of Oz, when Dorothy steps out of her gray world and into a candy-colored Munchkinland. Carl, too, enters a whole unusual world.

Up is a deeply emotional film, fleshy of truth. It’s the year’s best film. Accumulate another triumph for Pixar.

Someday, Pixar is going to do it — they’re going to design an emotionally uninspiring, lackluster consuming movie. But in the meantime, they’re calm putting out exquisite exciting movies like “Up,” which defies the usual kid-movie conventions by starring a crotchety customary man. It’s a charming, fun microscopic adventure fable with flying dogs and balloon-powered houses, but underlying it is a bittersweet slight myth about loss and esteem.

As a child, the terrified Carl Fredricksen bonded with the oddball Ellie over their shared esteem of adventure, the explorer Charles Muntz, and Paradise Falls. They later married, depart into their “clubhouse” together, and lived a long, sadly childless life together. When Ellie died, she had never fulfilled her dream of going to Paradise Falls.

Now crotchety, alone and harassed by a true estate developer, Carl (Ed Asner) is finally ordered to a retirement home. But he isn’t going quietly — instead he attaches thousands of balloons to his house and floats it away toward South America. But he accidentally takes an involved, naive Wilderness Explorer (a thinly-veiled Boy Scout) named Russell (Jordan Nagai) along for the toddle. Abominable kid was fair trying to glean an “assisting the elderly” badge.

And the jungle dart to Paradise Falls turns out to have some surprising obstacles: a immense emulike bird that Russell names Kevin, a talking dog named Dug (”I am jumping on you, bird!”), and a mysterious broken-down man who lives deep in the heart of the jungle. Turns out the worn guy is very familiar to Carl — and to remove Kevin, he’s willing to sacrifice Carl and Russell.

Industry experts were babbling about how “Up” wouldn’t be as approved as the previous Pixar movies, because the protagonist is basically a crusty mature coot. Well, shows what they know. It ended up becoming one of those classic movies that somehow appeals to all ages — while the humor and action appeal to children, adults can luxuriate in Carl’s admire for his lost wife, and his monotonous realization that he’s clinging to the past.

In fact, the first ten minutes are some of the most heart-tugging, quietly bittersweet scenes I’ve seen in a long time. Without a word, they display all the ups and downs of a realistic marriage — joys, sorrows (Ellie’s inability to have children), growing ancient together, and finally loss.

But it’s not a depressing movie by any stretch — in fact, it’s like a childhood fantasy reach to life, complete with a floating house suspended on hundreds of balloons, and biplanes piloted by a talking dog army.. Plenty of gargantuan dialogue (”Do you want to play a game? It’s called Discover Who Can Go the Longest Without Saying Anything.” “Cold! My mom loves that game!”) and an action-packed climax in an traditional airship.

Ed Asner is absolutely perfect as ubergrouch Carl — crotchety, grumpy, and obvious to fulfill his wife’s lifelong dream, but gradually realizing he’s clinging to the past. Nagai is equally perfect as Carl’s polar opposite: a naive, chattery Scout who is sure to reunite Kevin with her baby chicks. And the utterly adorable Dug and the other dogs deserve special ogle. These creatures are utterly hilarious — they talk (”I hid under your porch because I cherish you”) and act the method dogs would if they talked. Three words: cone of shame.

The two-disc edition is going to have some very nice extras, but once again people with regular-def DVDs are going to obtain shafted because the Blu-ray edition will have a bunch of outlandish stuff. Grr. As for this one, there’s a digital copy, the director’s audio commentary, kinda-alternate-ending “The Many Endings of Muntz,” and the documentary “Adventure Is Out There” about the research for this movie.

There are also a pair of adorable bewitching shorts. “Partly Cloudy” has a much-abused stork having to mumble potentially base baby creatures from a kind but clueless cloud. And “Dug’s Special Mission” is a sort of backstory for the adorable Dug, explaining what the heck he was doing before he met up with Carl and Russell.

“Up” continues Pixar’s running tally of gloriously curious, emotionally layered movies that the entire family can relish. With that, I have only one more thing to say… SQUIRREL!

Before anyone gets on my case, I HAVE THE DVD and am watching it factual now.

Let me commence off on a clear sign, the DVD station contains 47 videos on 2 DVDs. Some suited ones are inexplicably omitted (Dress You Up, Oh Father, Abominable Girl, Fever, This Feeble to Be My Playground, Substitute For Adore, Nothing Really Matters, American Life, etc) but there is a lot of obedient material released here for the first time. The audio is generally reliable. The 5.1 track is not really a 5.1 mix, it is simulated and sounds unpleasant. Stick with the PCM stereo track, it sounds astounding.

I won’t comment distinguished on the whisper of the videos. They are some of the most illustrious and influential music videos ever made. This is classic stuff. With the exception of Explain My Like (search for below) all of the videos are uncut.

Now on to the recount quality…what the hell happened here? It’s not as evil as some people have claimed, but it is Diagram below standard. There are serious compression artifacts throughout all of the videos. Pixellation, smearing, graininess, blotchy color, blurring, interlacing artifacts. It’s all there and it looks dreadful. I am watching the DVD on an upscaling Blu Ray player on a 52″ LCD 1080P television. It won’t glance as awful on a smaller TV, but it level-headed won’t behold enormous. I have honestly seen VHS gawk better than some of the videos. The Immaculate Collection DVD, which was made from a 19 year customary master, looks better.

The jam is that someone made the really, really tedious decision to spend single layer DVDs instead of the industry standard dual layer DVDs. I suspect this decision was made slack in the process to establish a few cents and the program was re-compressed to fit in half the region. There is too distinguished compression and too distinguished relate quality lost. I’ll bet the novel master was for 2 dual layer DVDs and it probably looked very wonderful. It is hard to maintain that anyone at Warner quality control well-liked the record quality on these DVDs. Didn’t Madonna imprint off on a release copy??

I understanding it might have something to do with the age of some of the videos, but the most new ones study objective as awful. The imprint unique Celebration video only looks slightly better than VHS quality. And it is ridiculous that the widescreen videos are not in 16:9 format, even the fresh ones filmed in 16:9 HD are in letterboxed 4:3.

There really is no excuse for this to happen, especially from a company as expansive as Warner and an artist as immense as Madonna. Using single layer DVDs could have only saved them a few cents. On a $30 position, that is inexcusable.

I would strongly suggest not buying this DVD until Warner addresses the state. I assume outcry among the fans will (hopefully) cause Warner to do the lawful thing and release a corrected version on dual layer discs.

UPDATE – One more thing, the video for Clarify My Treasure is CENSORED! This video was widely released uncensored as a video single in 1991 and sold millions of copies. And NOW, 18 years later, it is censored?? Unbiased fabulous.

Also, the Amazon description claiming the DVD has “unedited and never before seen footage of ‘Justify My Love’” is completely fraudulent. There is no original footage at all. In fact, you actually seek less because of the censorship.

If I could split my rating, it would be 4 stars for whine and 1 star for quality.

In the days where MTV is playing pimps being lapdanced by topless strippers, Madonna releases her video collection with a censored version of Account For My Treasure and Erotica.

Once upon a time Madonna swore over and over she would rather execute shows rather than change them or censor her videos.

Well apparently she’s become even greedier with age because the “never seen footage of Define My Like” that was taunted pre-release is nothing more but a shadowy stripe covering the dominatrix’s nipples in the video! And Erotica has no nudity.

So, I don’t understand WHY she is realeasing two versions of this dvd collection, one in amaray case and one in digipack. Who wants that? Why not do something really brilliant and at least do one of those with a friggin’ parental advisory sticker and give the grown-up fans what she knows they wanted?

Hopefully now that Madonna is no longer with Warner Bros they will milk her catalogue like a cow and release everything she’s done and not care about this unspoken rule of “always withhold some things unreleased so we can milk the fans in the future!”.

My balls hit the floor when I saw that dim stripe on Clarify My Adore.

Gus & Call: The Early Years. This prequel to Lonesome Dove detailing some of the adventures of the young Rangers, Gus McCrae and Woodrow Call, was written by Larry McMurtry and features all of his trademark specialities: complex heroes, pitiless & mean villains, politically inaccurate fierce & merciless Apaches & Comanches, a wild rush lead by a half-mad pirate (F. Murray Abraham), a motley collection of wilderness folks, wise & peaceful Scouts (Keith Carradine & Harry Dean Stanton) and a young whore with more guts and heart than most men.

In short, it is a hell of a fable, well told. The cast is worthy all the plan around, and the choices made for the young Woodrow Call (Johnny Lee Miller) and Gus McCrae (David Arquette) fortuitous. In Miller we survey the beginnings of the stubborn iron will and dtermination of Woodrow Call, as well as his natural acceptance of responsibility and leadership. David Arquette catches the free spirit, insipient laziness and romantic dreamer in Gus.

The sage of an ill-fated slouch to wrest Santa Fe and thereby all of Unique Mexico from Mexico, becomes a hellish mess as one thing after another goes rank, not the least of which is a distinct Apache, Gomez, picking them off one by one. And, there is yet a worst perambulate after their failure in Santa Fe, and that is the Expressionless Man’s Wander of the title, lead by a resolute and unswayable Mexican Officer (Edward J. Olmos), with other surprises to reach.

If you liked Lonesome Dove, you will like this as well. If you didn’t like Lonesome Dove (more’s the pity on you), better give this a pass. 4-1/2 stars. Worth it.

First off, the title should insist you that the pacing and tone of this yarn is not swift and uplifting. It is brutal and grinding, so those who may have been expecting another LD experience were apparently disappointed. However, this is a very superior sage in its possess upright and is a map for us to understand the early years of Augustus McCrae and his fair care for, Clara Forsythe; and also the taciturn Woodrow F. Call and his relationship and feelings for Maggie.

The storyline itself has already been recounted here, so no need to disclose. As far as the previous comment that the soundtrack was essentially stupid and humdrum, I disagree. I judge it was pleasing. The filming was also very well done. I also deem the two main stars did a creditable job in handling roles that were, let’s face it, definitively portrayed by Duvall & Jones in LD. Jennifer Garner as Clara was, as always, a pleasure to discover, and certainly she helped me understand McCrae’s falling head-over-heels in admire with her. In many ways, I consider that on the whole the main supporting cast was better than in LD. Keith Carradine, Patricia Childress, Edward James Olmos, Harry Dean Stanton and F. Murray Abraham were all outstanding.

I knocked this down to 4 stars because it ain’t LD, so comparatively speaking it simply could not garner 5 stars. Also, there are a couple of glaring technical errors. At the raze of Disc One, when the group is leaving the burying of some of their companions and about to embark on the Tiresome Man’s Stagger, the camera is on a wide shot and you can clearly peer a very vast vehicle(!) provocative across a roadway on the horizon. This is unforgivable. Later, while wandering in a rainstorm, the substantial stage fans faded to whip the rain can easily be heard. Both of these flaws are so conspicuously and outrageously unpleasant that I’m surprised they weren’t caught by the editor.

All in all, though, Tiresome Man’s Coast is a elegant DVD and should be in any LD fan’s collection.

I must agree with everyone who wrote reviews on this movie that it is not at all like the book by Dumas, but I don’t assume that’s a valid reason not to like this movie. It’s lots of fun and has plenty of action and adventure. And I contemplate that’s it’s not only mammoth for kids but for teenagers and adults alike.

Here’s the summary of “The Three Musketeers”. Chris O’Donnel is D’Artagnan, a young, brash, proud, yet valiant ‘kid’ whose only dream is to become one of the king’s musketeers. But when he gets to Paris, he finds that the musketeers have been disbanded by the young King Louis’s (Hugh O’Conor) corrupt Cardinal, Richelieu (Tim Curry) . But three musketeers who are the best of friends, Athos (Kiefer Sutherland), Aramis (Charlie Sheen), and Porthos (Oliver Platt), are suspicious of Cardinal Richelieu and his henchman Rochefort (Michael Wincott) . D’Artagnan is assign in jail for fighting the Cardinal’s guards with the three musketeers. Though he tries to elope yet fails, he is able to overhear the Cardinal’s view to purchase over the throne, building an alliance with the Duke of Buckingham by plan of a special courier, Lady DeWinter (Rebecca De Mornay) . And before D’Artagnan is executed, Athos, Aramis, and Porthos rescue him and together state out to terminate Richelieu’s see. They do intercept her, finding out that Lady DeWinter was actually Athos’s wife, whom had betrayed him and him sending her away. At the last moment they derive out that the Cardinal is planning to have the king assisinated on his birthday. The four men return as fleet as possible to Paris and with the assist of all the musketeers, end Richelieu.

As I said, though this movie has plenty of droll and comic parts, it unruffled has plenty of action and adventure, with a touch of romance here and there. The fighting is really advantageous, and the acting was terrific, especially all the three musketeers, Tim Curry, and Michael Wincott. I fancy the endless itsy-bitsy ‘extras’ Porthos always has with him!

An savory film which is very animated! I also recommend for you to inspect “The Three Musketeers” which was made in the early 1970’s.

Alexandre Dumas may or may have not liked the Disney version of his myth, but your whole family should. This often remade classic is more comedic in this version. I personally liked it. But then I have liked most versions in their style. The 1973 version with Oliver Reed as Athos and this version with Keifer Sutherland as Athos stand out above the rest in my humble belief. The 1973 version for the drama and this one for the comedy.

Tim Curry is wonderful as Cardinal Richelieu. He is so borderline outrageously lecherous you mediate he is going to burst out laughing like a madman or go into song from “The Rocky Apprehension Represent Demonstrate”. He never plays the piety like Charlton Heston did in the 1973 version. He goes more for the deviousness of an outright power exasperated religious leader.

The entire cast is substantial. With Charlie Sheen, Chris O’Donnell, Oliver Platt, and Rebecca DeMornay how could it be anything but well acted. I would bet the entire cast had a big time filming this version. The dramatic parts with DeMornay as Lady DeWinter are quite touching and the comedic parts with Porthos the Pirate, played by Platt, are quite droll. I was impressed with Stephen Herek’s direction.

Disney did a titanic job of transferring this movie to DVD. The DVD recount and sound quality is first class. The DVD includes a featurette, theatrical trailers, and Bios. Well worth adding to your collection of movies like “The Princess Bride”, “Ever After”, and “Robin Hood”.

Turns out the worn guy is very familiar to Carl — and to remove Kevin, he’s willing to sacrifice Carl and Russell.

Industry experts were babbling about how “Up” wouldn’t be as celebrated as the previous Pixar movies, because the protagonist is basically a crusty traditional coot. Well, shows what they know. It ended up becoming one of those classic movies that somehow appeals to all ages — while the humor and action appeal to children, adults can relish Carl’s care for for his lost wife, and his unimaginative realization that he’s clinging to the past.

In fact, the first ten minutes are some of the most heart-tugging, quietly bittersweet scenes I’ve seen in a long time. Without a word, they note all the ups and downs of a realistic marriage — joys, sorrows (Ellie’s inability to have children), growing venerable together, and finally loss.

But it’s not a depressing movie by any stretch — in fact, it’s like a childhood fantasy approach to life, complete with a floating house suspended on hundreds of balloons, and biplanes piloted by a talking dog army.. Plenty of tremendous dialogue (”Do you want to play a game? It’s called Witness Who Can Go the Longest Without Saying Anything.” “Wintry!

Here’s a movie for dog lovers, the elderly, children of divorce, FOBs (Friends of Birds), aged Boy Scouts, people yearning for adventure, and anyone who has ever loved… and lost. Up is for everyone. It made me laugh out loud, and it made me wail.

I conception it would be tough for Up to match the emotional power of Wall-E. The two Pixar films are similar in their lack of dialogue in the first act, which helps deepen the emotional impact. Up begins with Carl, a apprehensive young boy star-struck by a noted explorer; and kookie Ellie, who has a similar obsession. The two kids become hastily friends, and notify to one day recede to Venezuela’s Paradise Falls. After getting married, they occupy their dream home and fix it up, hoping to hold it with children. Carl and Ellie’s life together from childhood through ragged age is depicted, silently, with delicacy and subtlety. The first 15 minutes is like a celebration of a contented marriage, and you truly feel Carl’s harm when he is left alone. He sits slumped in his chair, talking to the house as if it is the missing Ellie.

When developers halt in on Carl’s beloved home, he decides to fulfill his promise to Ellie and depart to Paradise Falls. A veteran balloon vendor, Carl lifts his home with hundreds of intellectual balloons. Stowing away on the porch is Russell, a pudgy, dauntless kid trying to rep a scouting badge.

After landing in Paradise Falls, the conventional man and the minute boy are joined by a golden retriever named Dug who can talk with his collar, and a mountainous rare bird that bonds with Russell (he names her “Kevin”) . Dug is priceless: spot-on for every dog that ever lived, including an obsession with squirrels. Through a series of stop calls and adventures, the quartet vanquishes a villain, saving the day. And Russell earns his scouting badge.

In the process, Carl learns to let go of his sunless mourning for Ellie, and live life again. When this happens, a truly magical thing happens. Before, Carl’s craggy face is gray and monochromatic. At the moment of his transformation, Carl’s face is awash in color, and he is surrounded by shapely hues. It reminded me of The Wizard of Oz, when Dorothy steps out of her gray world and into a candy-colored Munchkinland. Carl, too, enters a whole unusual world.

Up is a deeply emotional film, fat of truth. It’s the year’s best film. Derive another triumph for Pixar.

Someday, Pixar is going to do it — they’re going to beget an emotionally uninspiring, lackluster inviting movie. But in the meantime, they’re mild putting out savory engrossing movies like “Up,” which defies the usual kid-movie conventions by starring a crotchety venerable man. It’s a charming, fun miniature adventure record with flying dogs and balloon-powered houses, but underlying it is a bittersweet dinky epic about loss and like.

As a child, the alarmed Carl Fredricksen bonded with the oddball Ellie over their shared like of adventure, the explorer Charles Muntz, and Paradise Falls. They later married, fade into their “clubhouse” together, and lived a long, sadly childless life together. When Ellie died, she had never fulfilled her dream of going to Paradise Falls.

Now crotchety, alone and harassed by a genuine estate developer, Carl (Ed Asner) is finally ordered to a retirement home. But he isn’t going quietly — instead he attaches thousands of balloons to his house and floats it away toward South America. But he accidentally takes an interested, naive Wilderness Explorer (a thinly-veiled Boy Scout) named Russell (Jordan Nagai) along for the meander. Terrible kid was unprejudiced trying to accumulate an “assisting the elderly” badge.

And the jungle promenade to Paradise Falls turns out to have some surprising obstacles: a mammoth emulike bird that Russell names Kevin, a talking dog named Dug (”I am jumping on you, bird!”), and a mysterious old-fashioned man who lives deep in the heart of the jungle. Turns out the passe guy is very familiar to Carl — and to buy Kevin, he’s willing to sacrifice Carl and Russell.

Industry experts were babbling about how “Up” wouldn’t be as favorite as the previous Pixar movies, because the protagonist is basically a crusty primitive coot. Well, shows what they know. It ended up becoming one of those classic movies that somehow appeals to all ages — while the humor and action appeal to children, adults can devour Carl’s appreciate for his lost wife, and his insensible realization that he’s clinging to the past.

In fact, the first ten minutes are some of the most heart-tugging, quietly bittersweet scenes I’ve seen in a long time. Without a word, they demonstrate all the ups and downs of a realistic marriage — joys, sorrows (Ellie’s inability to have children), growing frail together, and finally loss.

But it’s not a depressing movie by any stretch — in fact, it’s like a childhood fantasy arrive to life, complete with a floating house suspended on hundreds of balloons, and biplanes piloted by a talking dog army.. Plenty of titanic dialogue (”Do you want to play a game? It’s called View Who Can Go the Longest Without Saying Anything.” “Wintry! My mom loves that game!”) and an action-packed climax in an stale airship.

Ed Asner is absolutely perfect as ubergrouch Carl — crotchety, grumpy, and sure to fulfill his wife’s lifelong dream, but gradually realizing he’s clinging to the past. Nagai is equally perfect as Carl’s polar opposite: a naive, chattery Scout who is positive to reunite Kevin with her baby chicks. And the utterly adorable Dug and the other dogs deserve special gape. These creatures are utterly hilarious — they talk (”I hid under your porch because I savor you”) and act the map dogs would if they talked. Three words: cone of shame.

The two-disc edition is going to have some very nice extras, but once again people with regular-def DVDs are going to catch shafted because the Blu-ray edition will have a bunch of outlandish stuff. Grr. As for this one, there’s a digital copy, the director’s audio commentary, kinda-alternate-ending “The Many Endings of Muntz,” and the documentary “Adventure Is Out There” about the research for this movie.

There are also a pair of adorable inspiring shorts. “Partly Cloudy” has a much-abused stork having to explain potentially dismal baby creatures from a kind but clueless cloud. And “Dug’s Special Mission” is a sort of backstory for the adorable Dug, explaining what the heck he was doing before he met up with Carl and Russell.

“Up” continues Pixar’s running tally of gloriously intelligent, emotionally layered movies that the entire family can be pleased. With that, I have only one more thing to say… SQUIRREL!

The first time I saw QUAI DES ORFEVRES (Criterion), I was twisted within minutes. I saw it again with some friends, who said they didn’t want to discover a foreign film and have to read subtitles, but they too were riveted almost immediately.

This noirish French crime account directed by Henri-Georges Clouzot captures the feel of 1940s Paris at night — the relieve alleys and smokey cabarets — better than any film I can assume of.

But more than that, it reveals the unexpected human behavior that revolves around a possessive husband, a sexy night club singer, a best girlfriend photographer, a murdered lecherous movie producer and the persistent investigation of a weary police inspector. This terrific film is beefy of surprises. (The title “Quai des Orfevres” is the French equivalent to England’s Scotland Yard.) Highest recommended.

Clouzot, the “French Hitchcock”, downplays the suspense here to compose a joyfully cynical comedy in the guise of a cancel mystery about Parisian show-biz lowlife. Bernard Blier plays a loser-ish musician (who looks like, in the words of one critic, “a homicidal Bob Newhart”) who is crazily jealous about his hotsy-totsy wife, the night-club singer Jenny Lamour. When she threatens to hook up with millionaire Brignon (the amazingly repellent Charles Dullin), mayhem ensues. Blier and wife are aided by their neighbor, the smut photographer Dora (who has a “masculine aspect” to her, if you gather my drift) but the police are called, in the person of Louis Jouvet’s magnificently dour detective. The film explores the raffish milieu of low-rent entertainment of the 1940’s with gargantuan style. Clouzot retains his unusual combination of satire and sentiment about equivocal human nature that is also found in his other masterpieces, “The Wages of Apprehension”, “Diabolique” and “Le Corbeau.” This is a most inviting movie.
