For anyone who says "Animation can't be emotional" watch that!

Up is by far the saddest Pixar film I have seen and I still wandering why it didn't get the Best Picture in 2009. Apart from the excellent animation, interesting story ,the opening is by far the most famous part of the film for it shows the life that our hero Carl Fredricksen had before he embark to his adventure towards the Paradise Falls.
No spoilers for the opening minutes, but they were both beautiful, funny, sad and in the end tragic for our elderly man and after seen them you understand why he is grumpy all the time. Also at his great escaped, he is joined by Russell a plump ,joyfull boy-scout and they form one of the most mismatched duos in film history. And after-ward in the island they meet the talking dog Doug, I want him can we keep him?!!!
As for the island itself ,is what your child-self would dream from an tropical island, vivid colors, huge trees and animals that you won't believe that really exist. This change in tone is done in a so amazing way that even Carl smiles!
Also to our duo ,what I got, was that Carl saw his younger self to Russell and Russell got a father figure that was absent from the majority of his life. What a twist right? But how times in our life did we wished to happened to us and this was the best execution of that cliché I have seen.
Over all I love Up and you should definitely watch show it with your kids, they are going to love it!
