I saw Pixar's latest film, and - as usual - it's good. It's got some genuinely funny moments, but I'd almost categorize it as a more "touching" movie, since a lot of the plot revolves around the main character's deceased wife and how he deals with the loss.

My only complaint - and it's a very minor one - is that the villain never seemed to have much in the way of motivation. He somehow went from hero and explorer to batshit psychopath, and there doesn't seem to be any real explanation for it. (I don't consider his scientific "disgrace" to be reason enough to become so paranoid and murderous; paranoid, perhaps, but not murderous.) Even so, that doesn't detract much from the movie since there are some really excellent and amusing scenes involving our main antagonist.

By the by, Dug is one of my new favorite characters EVER. That dog definitely got some of the best scenes and lines. He's just so lovably dumb, but he still displays enough of his own sort of intelligence and loyalty that one can't help but adore him. That goofy grin still cracks me up: "Oh, PLEASE, be my prisoner." Also, "SQUIRREL!"

Although the best line has to have been: "I was hiding under your porch, because I love you."
