Pixar has done it again!

Rating: 9/10 (9 November 2011)

First off, let me jut say that this is not my favourite film from Pixar. "Finding Nemo" and the "Toy Story" movies, especially the third one, go into that slot.
That being said, "Up" does not disappoint. It is basically about a 70-year-old man who decides to tie thousands of balloons to his house and go to a beautiful place called "Paradise Falls," a place where he had always dreamed to go.
Everything is beautiful here, but what truly makes the magic of the movie is the acting. You really feel for the characters, and their voices, especially Ed Asner's character. After going through a lot of things in his life, you can just tell from the start that he has always loved adventure, but has always been stuck in the same old house. Christopher Plummer, whose character does not come in until later on in the movie, is great is the movie's antagonist; I've only really known him from "The Sound of Music," so it was great to see, or should I say "hear", him play something else.
All in all, a very beautiful movie. The only reason why it was not as good as "Finding Nemo" and the Toy Story movies is simply because of the fact that I grew up with those movies (except for the third toy story, in which I re-visited my childhood when watching that movie). But, overall, I can't complain here. 9/10 for me.
