Although I have never given a review of a movie I've seen, I felt compelled to write one today. My husband and I went to see The Upside last evening and couldn't have enjoyed the movie any more than we did. It was inspiring and uplifting and comedic when warranted. I can not disagree more with the "so called" movie critics of their critic of this movie. I would highly recommend you go see this awesome film, the acting was terrific and the message was even more inspiring! Just because someone calls you a "movie critic" doesn't mean you know what you're talking about, as in evident in the comments on this page!
