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 Up feel 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 (Monsters, Inc. ) 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 The Incredibles and Ratatouille, the Pixar crew offers nuanced animation of the stylized characters. Even by Pixar's elevated standards, Up is an exceptional film that will appeal of audiences of all ages. Rated PG for some peril and action. --Charles Solomon

3 out of 5 stars Caution! Not for very young children!   November 22, 2009
hihowrya (RI USA)
For whatever reason, Disney once again resorts to gun violence to keep older kids entertained. There are also frightening scenarios involving dogs. Certainly, there are moments of laughter, and the serious subjects of aging, life and death are handled with sensitivity and respect. However, I urge caution before allowing children under ages five to six to watch the film. This story is marketed by Disney as a fun-filled family romp. The ads conveniently leave out the violence!


2 out of 5 stars not a kids movie   November 22, 2009

Rented the movie today and thought it was only OK. Certainly didn't live up to the Pixar reputation like the Incredibles and Toy Story. It was rather violent for an animated film and there was no solid plot to follow. Funny parts throughout the movie, but I can't see a child getting into it or being able to follow it.


1 out of 5 stars Loved it in theaters....but....   November 21, 2009

Watched it in the theater, loved it.

Blu-ray arrived yesterday, won't play in my PS3, just sits there on black screen. All my other Blu-rays play just fine.



2 out of 5 stars Stay Away If You're Hearing Impaired!!!!   November 20, 2009

There is NO MENU and no captioning. It's impossible to enjoy an animated movie if it's not captioned and you can't hear it. Pixar should be ashamed.


1 out of 5 stars DRM causes a mess, again. Thanks.   November 20, 2009

Beautiful movie. Typically Pixar. I actually went to a cinema to see it (which, here in Germany, is usually getting too expensive for my taste), and didn't regret it at all.
Bought the DVD as soon as it came out - yes, actually thought the movie good enough that I want to see it again on DVD, despite it not being particularly cheap.

And the DVD doesn't play, thanks to some DRM (Digital Restriction Mess-Up). It doesn't play, because it does not adhere to the DVD standard, thus (by definition) not being a DVD. So I paid a LOT of money - to get nothing.

Thanks. Disney. Well done. Wish I could give you Zero Stars.
Certainly an excellent way of making sure I buy even less DVDs than I already do, and certainly none ever again from *you*.
