I'm not always the biggest fan of animated films, but I absolutely could not believe how great this movie was! It's sad, it's happy, it's mostly funny and it's the BEST animated film I've ever seen! I think it's brilliantly done! Two old men, one child, a bunch of dogs (with one special dog), are most of the story. But the beginning with the (not yet old) old man and his girlfriend/wife set this up beautifully. It's actually a very powerful story - unheard of in animation, as far as I'm concerned. The only part I thought was inappropriate was three dogs flying three planes - without that, the movie's almost believeable!! Whatever you do, make sure you see this movie!!
Enjoy!!
Al Pacino has a ball playing his evil character in this movie, but kudos to Keanu Reeves and Charlize Theron for delivering convincing performances in this genre offering. Some neat effects and dark atmosphere provide sufficient chills.
Best Pixar Film!! A winner!

Disney' Pixar has done it again in this fantastic adventure called Up. Up is a fantastic pixar film. Last year's pixar film WALL- E wasn't all that special they're some ok parts in the movie ,but most of the film was a B- or a C+. I just saw UP 3 days ago ( Tuesday, June 2nd) and it was excellentand it was the best Pixar film I have seen since Finding Nemo.About the first 20 minutes of the was sad. But so far this year Up is one of my favorite movies of 2009 and is so far hte best Pixar i have senn and is a triumph!!!
