Hey guuuuyyyys!
Wow it took me almost two years to revive this blog. HAHA. I almost forgot about this one.
One thing that made me continue this blog even without the requirement of my EDP class, is that there's just tons of movies to tackle. I mean, yeah I know movies nowadays are prolly uncountable, but what I mean is there's just a handful of new awesome movies. I couldn't even choose what would be best to post here.
So I decided to follow mood...
A sci-fi lovestory ❤
to start... let's see what wiki has to tell us ;)
Seeing who are the actors, what couldn't be more interesting??
The main actors here are Jim Stugress who acts asmy husbandAdam, the "prince charming" so we speak (hey HE IS as charming as a prince ❤ ), of course the very beautiful Kirsten Dunst who acts as Eden,the bitch who's stealing my Jimmy away from meleading lady, (which by the way is supposed to be me. HAHA kiddin'!), followed by Timothy Spall who acts as Bob, the BRIDGE of the love birds, and lastly Jayne Heitmeyer as the executive.
Now I know you couldn't wait,
So let's proceed to the discussion.
(rephrased review from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upside_Down_(film), please open link for more details.)
They live in a mysterious galaxy where planets have two gravity. Now there are these twin planets which exist just next to another, and their gravity have 3 rules:
All matter is pulled by the gravity of the world that it comes from, and not the other.
An object's weight can be offset by matter from the opposite world (inverse matter).
After some time in contact, matter in contact with inverse matter burns.
Adam came from Down, and his family has this unique secret: something that comes from both worlds (which is considerably very rare to them). It comes from the pink bees which gather pollen from both worlds.Engaging with anyone from Up is strictly forbidden and can be punishable by through death, and the only connection linking the two worlds is through the company called "TransWorld", which buys cheap oil from DOWN, sells cheaper to UP and provides a significally high price to DOWN.
As a child, Adam secretly climbs a mountain that gets very close to Up. There he meets Eden, a girl from Up. They became two great friends who eventually ended up having a relationship. They'd use a rope to pull Eden towards Down, and be together.
However, they are later discovered, and while Adam frantically releases Eden back to her world, he gets shot and drops her. Helpless, he watches Eden lying motionless on the ground as blood oozes from her head. When he returns home, his aunt is arrested and her home destroyed.
Ten years later, Adam is now working on creating an anti-gravity product using the secret of his family (what comes from both worlds could actually defy gravity). That thing allows matter to feel both gravitational fields at once.
One day, Adam saw Eden on TV and he finally finds out that she's alive and works at TransWorld. He decided to work out his formula and got hired by TransWorld to develop the face-lift cream.He eventually meets Bob, a TransWorld employee from Up who becomes his friend after he helps him obtain rare stamps from Down. As an exchange, Bob offers to help him contact Eden.
With the help of Bob, Adam meets Eden by putting Up-material in his clothes to disguise himself as a worker from Up, using Bob's name as his own.
BUT HERE'S THE THING!
Eden doesn't recognize him, suffering from amnesia from the accident as a teen.
The Up-material in Adam's clothes starts to burn so he has to return to Down (yes. Something that comes from another world and transfers to the other world burns after a few hours. Even I am confused. Don't bother asking.)
Later on, Bob is fired but as he leaves, he secretly gives Adam his ID to help him exit the TransWorld building and into Up. Later, by calling Eden through Bob's phone, Adam manages to get a date.
Meanwhile, his cosmetic cream becomes of great importance to the company. While Adam is doing a presentation of the cream, Eden sees him, shocked that he is from Down and learns his real name. Adam runs to find her but Bob's ID, having been terminated, lands him in trouble. He escapes to Bob's house. He shows him that by mixing the matter from both gravity areas can make matter that resists both gravitational fields and tells him he didn't give TransWorld the secret ingredient of his compound, leaving the company unable to produce the product without him.
With Bob's help, he goes back to the restaurant where he met with Eden before and finds out she started to remember him, but the cops came and he had to run.
When he returns to his planet, he goes to the mountain top where he met Eden. Eden comes to find him and they meet as they used to. But cops find them again and, as they fail to escape, Eden is arrested while Adam, ironically, drops.
TransWorld agrees to drop the charges against Eden if Adam gives them his formula and never contacts Eden again. Now Adam has gone back to his old life, believing he will never see Eden again.
Eden goes to Bob for help. Bob finds Adam and surprises him by showing he can stay Down without the help of the weight supplements; Bob has been able to use Adam's methods to create a way to negate the effect of gravity. Bob tells him he had the patent of his beauty cream before TransWorld and tells him he has a date.
THE ENDING? FIND IT OUT YOURSELFFFFFF! HAHAHAHHAHAHA!
