Looking Up

We really enjoyed the movie. It is touching, and exciting. I have never felt that I'm bored during the movie. There was always some emotions or excitement. It does not feel like classic space movies, this one has very good emotional connection. I believe this movie deserves at least a solid 7. If you are interested in this type, it might be higher than 7/10.

I like the bit where he smells the grass. Special meaning I think

I think if you saw this movie on a plane, it would be far more emotional, but I saw it in my lounge. Anyway, Looking Up is ambitious but also has some repetitious and lagging parts. Still, its heart is in the right place for sure. The usual plot devices are there, with the inspiring ending that will restore your faith in home-school education combined with state schooling.

If Americans remade this movie, I'd imagine Will Ferrell would play the father.

It want to criticize the exam-oriented education, but It can't get the truthful evidence; It want to render the father and son love, but it is shaped into a broken family poison record; It want to use the space special effects to improve the grade, but tear the plot and lick the lips. The traditional old-fashioned mother, the step-father who is busy making money, the father who is eager to compensate, the child who is rebellious against the heart, this combination can enter the top 10 according to the way in the photo. It is really a god-given opportunity, and it is recommended to hurry into the mountain to practice.

Such a pleasure to watch a film about a young boy being inspired by his hard-working Father who was challenged many times without giving up and taught this valuable lesson to his son! Loved it!!
