Up! Not Too Sure?

Took the kids to see the new Disney movie "Up!" at The Sayville Movie Theater on Railroad Avenue in Sayville http://www.sayvillecinemas.com/. No The Bayport Bubble does not have it's own movie theater. The Sayville Movies is a great cinema - sort of an old fashioned mom and pop run theater. If you see the first showing of day of any movie it is $5 a ticket - a great bargain! A small popcorn is $3.25 - which is less then those big chain movie theaters.

Now onto "Up!". It was rated G, but I would have rated it PG-13. It was an entertaining movie with a good storyline and a happy ending. But to get to that happy ending - it was a bit much for little kids. I went with a 4, 5 and 6 year old. They were covering their eyes a lot and got scared. Usually with these animated movies there is some adult humor put in to entertain the big people watching it. "Up!" dealt with some adult subjects that made many of the big people in the theater shed a tear. It went over the kid's heads, but I still thought it was a bit much for a "G" rated movie - miscarriage, death, abandonment. I am really not a freaky overprotective mom and I do talk about death with my kids, but I left this movie feeling a bit melancholy. Two out of three kids like this movie.
