Heartwarming Adventure!

Rating: 9/10 (27 March 2012)

Up is a big, warm-hearted animation with great visuals, humor, and many realistic things. Of course, it's not based on the truth. There ain't a chance in hell that it is based on the truth. But this movie is so beautiful because it focuses a lot on the main character. Also, I found the film to very sad at the beginning, but at the end, it puts a huge smile on your face. I can assure you.
Carl Fredrickson(voiced brilliantly by Ed Asner) had a good life for a while. Until he got older. Now that Carl is older, his life is kind of sad. His wife has passed, the neighborhood in which he lives in has turned into a construction site, and he is very lonely. One day as he is going to go to a retirement home, he decides to escape in his house which is tied up to a billion balloons, and fly out to where he always dreamed of going.
So as Carl is traveling, he realizes that there is a boy scout on the house that is flying with him. So, him and Russell land in South America, and find a bunch of weird stuff. Including dogs who have voice box leashes, and other things.
Up is a fantastic film. I think that this movie is so cute and funny that I could just eat it up. For a long time, Ratatouille was the best of Pixar's works. I know Wall E and others were good, but Ratatouille was better. Now, Pixar has made something that tops even that movie. Up is one of the best films of the year.
