Best Pixar Surprise Yet

Rating: Null/10 (7 August 2013)

This was to be the first disappointing Pixar movie that I would see. I was unbelievably surprised to find it was one of my most favorites. The preposterous idea of an old man flying his house around the world using balloons was successfully done in only a way that Pixar can deliver. This movie tells the tale of a bitter old man finding his youth again, a young kid without a father finding a role model, and a lonely dog finding an owner. The old tale is give new light using the wonder of animation to create a world of dense forest, towering cliffs, and even talking dogs. I would not have been able to grasp all the imagination and creativity within this movie had I not seen most of the other Pizar movies already. This movie is a delight for all ages.
