Movie Description
This film from the wizards at Pixar centers on Carl Fredericksen, a character far different from any of the animation company's previous heroes. Carl isn't a fish, or a toy, or a monster. Instead, Carl is simply a 78-year-old man, but his age doesn't keep him from having a rollicking adventure in this film featuring the voices of Ed Asner, Christopher Plummer, and Pixar favorite John Ratzenberger.
Industry Reviews
"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."
Hollywood Reporter - Michael Rechtshaffen (05/13/2009)
5 stars out of 5 -- "Breakneck speedy, hysterically funny and appropriately lithe, UP handles itself in action with the same intensity as with comedy..."
Box Office - Sara Schieron (05/13/2009)
4 stars out of 4 -- "Adventure comes in many forms and can happen at any stage of life. Disney/Pixar's UP conveys that message through an artful blend of exhilaration and poignancy."
USA Today - Claudia Puig (05/29/2009)
"UP is the purest pleasure....Rarely has any film, let alone an animated one powered by the logic of dream and fantasy, been able to move so successfully -- and so effortlessly -- through so many different kinds of cinematic territory."
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (05/29/2009)
"In its opening stretch the new Pixar movie UP flies high, borne aloft by a sense of creative flight and a flawlessly realized love story."
New York Times - Manohla Dargis (05/29/2009)
"[A] soaring, touching, funny and altogether buoyant movie that lives up to its title in spirit and form."
Washington Post (05/29/2009)
"UP is challenging, emotionally and narratively, but it trusts viewers to keep up; Pixar has never been interested in talking down to children or their parents..." -- Grade: B+
A.V. Club - Tasha Robinson (05/28/2009)
4 stars out of 4 -- "UP is a wonderful film....This is another masterwork from Pixar, which is leading the charge in modern animation."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (05/27/2009)
