It's not that Disney/Pixar can't make a bad movie, they don't know how to

Rating: 10/10 (7 June 2009)

All his life Carl Fredrickson dreamed of adventure, but today his adventure has taken off. Up is Disney/Pixar's latest adventure and their first in 3-D (which looks colorful by the way). Our story starts off with Carl Fredrickson a grumpy old man who's missed the train, and is still mourning the death of his beloved wife. Until one day he decides to travel to Paradise Falls (a jungle in South America) by tying 100 balloons to his house and exploding into thin air. Taking along a young wilderness explorer named Russell, Carl is determined to finish his journey while honoring his late wife's dream in the process. Disney/Pixar have been making nothing but Art ever since they first started and this is no exception. Up is a delightfully funny, sweet, and heartfelt dramady that will make you smile and shred a tear at the same time. It also has a good message about moving on and the chemistry between Russell and Carl is a good example of a strong friendship and true male bonding. There's nothing to complain about here as I haven't seen a single flaw but young viewers maybe frightened by the appearances of the dogs. They turn out friendly, but are creepy enough to scare the kids. That said this is a movie event you can take anyone (your parents or grandparents in particular) to. Its real like groundbreaking 3-D animation makes it far beyond its predecessor and if you thought Disney's best effort was WALL-E you'll immediately think twice after watching this.
