UP Pixar keeps delivering the goods. They take a old man and stick him in an adventure comedy. Ed Asner voices the old man in UP and captures the essence of an elderly man that doesn't really like the development of the neighborhood. As a young kid he encounters his wife and they both love the water fall in South America because of a famous adventurer in their day. He promises to take her there. One thing leads to another and he choses to move his house with the help of numerous balloons. Along for the ride is a "boyscout" type boy that has only one more patch before he collects them all. The last patch is to help the elderly and he accidentally stows away on the floating house and the relationship is born. Good movie, some sad parts but nothing to make the movie depressing. I definatly think this movie, shows us why Pixar is the King of making CG movies, good plot and story line, with a mixture of comedy makes for a great movie for all ages. 9 out of 10 |
