One of Pixar's best films to date, it is truly uplifting.

Rating: 10/10 (9 July 2011)

The film at first seemed unappealing but after watching this I adored it and made it one of my favorite animation films. The script is truly original with the story of a retired balloon sales man trying to pursuit his and his wife's dreams of going to South America all seems well on his balloon floating house until he encounters an eight year-old wilderness explorer who he must let tag along.I'll try not to reveal to much but on his journey he meets crazy and unique characters such as dogs which can talk with special collars which transmit their thoughts and a tall flightless bird. Don't be fooled by this odd story line it will make you laugh and cry with the compelling and sweet plot along with it's great quality cinematography. This is a movie that you must see and is great for all ages. The film illustrates sometimes the biggest adventures aren't the ones you set out looking for.
