Amazon.com At a time when too many animated films consist of anthropomorphized animals cracking sitcom one-liners and flatulence jokes, the warmth, originality, humor, and unflagging imagination of emUp /emfeel as welcome as rain in a desert. Carl Fredericksen (voice by Ed Asner) ranks among the most unlikely heroes in recent animation history. A 78- year-old curmudgeon, he enjoyed his modest life as a balloon seller because he shared it with his adventurous wife Ellie (Ellie Docter). But she died, leaving him with memories and the awareness that they never made their dream journey to Paradise Falls in South America. When well-meaning officials consign Carl to Shady Oaks Retirement Home, he rigs thousands of helium balloons to his house and floats to South America. The journey's scarcely begun when he discovers a stowaway: Russell (Jordan Nagai), a chubby, maladroit Wilderness Explorer Scout who's out to earn his Elderly Assistance Badge. In the tropical jungle, Carl and Russell find more than they bargained for: Charles Muntz (Christopher Plummer), a crazed explorer whose newsreels once inspired Carl and Ellie; Kevin, an exotic bird with a weakness for chocolate; and Dug (Bob Peterson), an endearingly dim golden retriever fitted with a voice box. More importantly, the travelers discover they need each other: Russell needs a (grand)father figure; Carl needs someone to enliven his life without Ellie. Together, they learn that sharing ice-cream cones and counting the passing cars can be more meaningful than feats of daring-do and distant horizons. Pete Docter (emMonsters, Inc/em. ) and Bob Peterson direct the film with consummate skill and taste, allowing the poignant moments to unfold without dialogue to Michael Giacchnio's vibrant score. Building on their work in emThe Incredibles/em and emRatatouille/em, the Pixar crew offers nuanced animation of the stylized characters. Even by Pixar's elevated standards, emUp /emis an exceptional film that will appeal of audiences of all ages. Rated PG for some peril and action. --emCharles Solomon/embr /br /span class="h1"strongStills from emUp/em (Click for larger image)/strong/span table border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="4" width="100%" tbody tr align="center" valign="top" tdimg height="200" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/Disney/upF1_S.gif" width="300" / br //td tdimg height="200" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/Disney/upF2_S.gif" width="300" / br //td tdimg height="200" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/Disney/upF3_S.gif" width="300" / br //td /tr tr align="center" valign="top" tdimg height="200" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/Disney/upF4_S.gif" width="300" //td tdimg height="200" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/Disney/upF5_S.gif" width="300" //td tdimg height="200" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/Disney/upF6_S.gif" width="300" //td br / /tr tr align="center" valign="top" tdimg height="200" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/Disney/upF7_S.gif" width="300" //td tdimg height="200" src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/disney/up/upF9_S.gif" width="300" //td tdimg src="http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/dvd/Disney/upF8_S.gif" //td /tr /tbody /table

A wonderful ride! November 20, 2009 K. Van Kainen (Michigan) There's little I can add to the rave reviews already given here. Within the first 15 minutes of "Up," I found myself alternately laughing my head off and crying like a baby. I can't even remember another film, animated or live-action, that played my emotions with such delicious ease...that had characters so endearing I found myself caring about them instantly...with a story so charming I was hooked from beginning to the end credits.
br /
br /I agree with other reviewers that some of the themes might be too grown-up for very young and/or sensitive children...hence, the PG rating. (For the record, I think it's unfair to hold it against the film-makers if your very young child was upset...those ratings are given for a reason. It's up to parents to pay attention to the rating and use their common sense.) There's plenty of fun and adventure here for both children and adults.

br /The most fun I've had watching a movie in a long, long time!
