emotional and fun movie. only complaint was the dogs

Rating: 8/10 (31 May 2009)

UP is a movie that both adults and kids will enjoy. It starts off very sad as you see the main character and his wife throughout the years and the hardships they have endured. The main character ends up loosing his wife and stays at home all day refusing to let people take his home until he injures a man who breaks his mailbox he made with his wife. As a result he is going to be sent to a nursing home but before they take him he unleashes balloons attached to his house, which lifts up his house off the ground so he can go to South America which him and his wife always wanted to do. Unbeknownst to him, a little boy was under the house at the time, who needs to get his badge for helping the elderly. The boy is funny and brings most of the humour to the movie but it's really about friendships and doing things you love. The annoying things I found were the talking dogs. It was funny with the dog they meet but having so many was just annoying.
