Reviews
Empire - Up is a more more classic piece of entertainment, which cleaves to the Pixar template of being beautifully rendered, emotional and laugh-out-loud adult funny, all the while capturing the na∩ve charm of old-school Disney, The Observer - One of its best: touching, funny and graphically exciting., Rolling Stone - Up is a breathtaking ride into the realm of pure imagination., Total Film - Up, as ever, is all about the characters. And the observations of human (and animal) behaviour. And the exquisitely timed physical comedy, The Times - It's an unusual, magical film with which to open an art-house festival, The Guardian - It's a terrific family adventure: the 3D presentation gives it a real boost, but this film is airborne because of the traditional strengths: story, characterisation and inventive animation with the old-fashioned values of clarity and simplicity, Time Out - Pixar triumphs again with a delirious fantasy that has one leg in the real world of hopes dashed and realised and the other in the cartoon tradition of journeying and adventure, The Independent UK - UP is buoyant with thrills and spills, yet it's anchored, quite movingly, in the acceptance of mortality. This rollercoaster ride will leave everyone on an up., The Hollywood Reporter - Winsome, touching and arguably the funniest Pixar effort ever, the gorgeously rendered, high-flying adventure is a tidy 90-minute distillation of all the signature touches that came before it., Daily Mirror - So expertly put together, so beautifully written and filled with such brilliant and believable characters, it's no exaggeration to say we're in the throes of a golden age of animation not seen since Disney's heyday from the 1930s to the 1950s., Screen International - A highpoint of ingenuity and storytelling in the Pixar canon and indeed the animated form, Chicago Tribune - Some of the comic inventions are inspired: Muntz has a pack of dogs equipped with electronic voice boxes, which means they're talking dogs, only they speak as if they've learned English from a poorly translated Berlitz guide., Chicago Sun-Times - This is another masterwork from Pixar, which is leading the charge in modern animation., The Independent - UP is buoyant with thrills and spills, yet it's anchored, quite movingly, in the acceptance of mortality. This rollercoaster ride will leave everyone on an up., Daily Telegraph - Any of the assembled critics who thought the choice was a bit gimmicky or a sop to the Hollywood studios will surely have changed their tune: it's utterly delightful, certain to appeal to audiences young, old and all points in between, Daily Mail - Pixar's tenth film is one of the most uplifting ever made. It's an instant classic and one of those rare movies which will appeal to all ages and intellects. It has heart and intelligence, beauty and excitement, plus loads and loads of imagination.
Additional Information
A feisty septuagenarian teams with a fearless wilderness ranger to do battle with a vicious band of beasts and villains in this computer-animated adventure scripted by Pixar veteran Bob Peterson and co-directed by Peterson and MONSTERS, INC. director Peter Docter. Carl Fredricksen is a 78-year-old balloon salesman. His entire life, Carl has longed to wander the wilds of South America. Then, one day, the irascible senior citizen shocks his neighbours by tying thousands of balloons to his home and finally taking flight. But Carl isn't alone on his once-in-a-lifetime journey, because stowed away on his front porch is an excitable eight-year-old wilderness explorer named Russell. Later, as the house touches down on the world's second largest continent, Carl and his unlikely travelling companion step outside to discover that not only is their new front lawn considerably larger, but that the predators therein are much more ferocious than anything they ever faced back home.
