Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
It doesn't really develop its story, or its themes. It doesn't truly draw out its characters. It evokes no serious emotions. It has - in the end - no gravity.

fresh:
Simply put, this is one of the craziest films to come along in a while and I can confidently say that anyone who sees it will either hail it is some kind of crackpot masterpiece or dismiss it as one of the silliest damn things they've ever seen.

rotten:
Absent any emotional grounding, the film is a gorgeous, sterile construction, like a dream city unoccupied by humans.

rotten:
A Romeo and Juliet story for the age of CGI overkill, Upside Down zigs where it should zag and dulls where it should dazzle.

Soon enough the worlds of Up Top and Down Below feel like distractions, CGI Potemkin villages.
