Upside Down is visually breathtaking but it didn't go beyond that. It would still be worth watching if you're one of those people who doesn't care about the story even if its flaws are inevitable, but it still deserves something better. These portraits are so gorgeous, it is best to see in cinema. There are two sequences that can be goosebumps worthy. Much magnificent is when it take turns between the aspects of the two worlds. Mashing several styles like steampunk and typical futuristic details. It is a brilliantly designed world that can be both trippy and fascinating. Despite of the story's inconsistency, the visuals are the landmark here. It also leaves some unanswered questions in the end but that ending chooses forget almost everything from those questions.

In other cast, Timothy Spall appears as an older version of cliché best friend roles in romantic comedies. Same goes to Kristen Dunst, except she is mostly underused. He gets a lot of things to do in most vital parts but only did little to the romance. Jim Sturgess is always charming as a lover boy. Even the talents couldn't save their love. Yeah, they had a childhood together and they are good looking but what else? That's almost the only thing we knew about them because every time when it stumbles to their relationship, it becomes a montage of inaudible chatter thus never really get to know them more. It's hard to understand why do they love each other. The biggest problem is probably the romance. The first and second act really shows a lot of intrigue to the premise but falters when it goes through the rest. The central plot is about a man who risks everything to get his love back. Even if it's quite gripping, the film calls for something better. Sadly, that story is unable to achieve its message. Who could imagine a world like that? It may be scientifically unbelievable but it doesn't matter. The visuals are undeniably breathtaking but the plot gets the opposite which results a story that fails to be compelling. It could have at least given some sense to their love but it doesn't provide much exploration to their relationship. It tries to tell a deeper meaning about love but none of it worked because of its terribly underdeveloped plot and awful romance. Unfortunately, the journey suffers incoherence and leaves several unsettled details. It starts with a great promise and many imaginative ideas were featured. The story is a romance that is suppose to defy gravity.
