Plot Story : 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 neighbors 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 traveling 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. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Review For Movie Up
Funny and poignant and full of life, Up easily qualifies as one of the best movies of the year so far. Go with someone you care about.Tom Charity-CNN.com
The movie is packed with lovely jokes, some of them funny in inexplicable ways.
David Denby-New Yorker
The key to Pixar's success has always been the perfect blend of heart and humor -- and they've certainly done it again here.
Ben Mankiewicz-At the Movies
This is really special.
Ben Lyons-At the Movies
An exquisite work of cinematic art that also happens to be the funniest, most touching, most exciting and most entertaining movie released so far this year.
Lou Lumenick-New York Post
Its charms appear to have been applied with surgical precision; by the end, I felt expertly sutured, but not much else.
Stephanie Zacharek-Salon.com
The first 10 minutes of Pixar's fantastical 3-D animated adventure Up are a sublime testimonial to the purity and magic of the cinema. I know because I was a sobbing basket case by Minute 11.
Dann Gire-Daily Herald (IL)
There might not be a more dependable name in all of Hollywood than Pixar, and their tenth animated feature, Up, continues the studio's remarkable hot streak.
Perry Seibert-TV Guide's Movie Guide
What makes Up such a satisfying film is the story of an old man deciding that he still has life left to be lived. And that life is an adventure.
Josh Jackson-Paste Magazine
The glory of Pixar's films as that they touched on universal themes, all the way through, that just happened to also tickle kids. This one starts out that way, and then settles comfortably into being a kids film.
Will Leitch-Deadspin
Quintessential Pixar.
Rob Humanick-Projection Booth
Has more heart and soul in its tiniest pixel than most competitors' movies can boast in their entirety.
Ali Gray-TheShiznit.co.uk
The pacing is perfect, the animation looks terrific, the emotional range is wide, and there are a few sly jokes you might not catch the first time around. That's okay; you'll want to see it a second time anyway.
Hank Sartin-Time Out Chicago
As corny as it sounds, Up soars to new animation heights.
James Plath-Movie Metropolis
No matter how you look at it, through the innocent eyes of a child or the wider, wiser worldview of an adult, the bright, buoyant Up brims with imagination, adventure, humor and heart.
Neil Pond-American Profile
The most successful moments use screenwriter Peterson's rapid-fire witty dialogue and sight gags.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express
Everything else is up to the studio's usual standard, blending gorgeous and imaginative (but never gimmicky) animation with zippy storytelling, heartfelt sadness and laughs.
Matt Soergel-Florida Times-Union
You never know what you're going to get with this sort of thing, if people will sit on their laurels and bask in the concept or go to the effort of working out a compelling story. Luckily the folks at Pixar aren't known for taking the easy way out.
Joshua Starnes-ComingSoon.net
...an animated masterpiece...
David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews
Adventure is about escaping death's closure, but it's also about clinging to life's openness - letting one escapade's end evolve into something new. "Up" is a tremendously affecting story of indomitable love, infectious spirit and embraced possibilities.
Nick Rogers-Suite101.com
Has there ever been a bolder moment in a children's film than one in which the lead character essentially sets off on his final journey into the heavens?
Simon Miraudo-Quickflix
A vibrantly bubbly exploration of how life's great adventures can stem from death's gloomy depths
Matthew Pejkovic-Matt's Movie Reviews
The first from Pixar to be filmed in Disney Digital 3-D, Up looks and sounds great. The script is charming, touching and altogether delightful; the voice talent perfectly suited to the characters.
Jean Lowerison-San Diego Metropolitan
Disney/Pixar's Up is a triumphant masterstroke for the studio and their Teflon reputation.
Brian Orndorf-Dark Horizons
Up has much to offer kids but more to offer adults. We're so entertained we don't realize we're exploring tough questions. How faithful are we in the promises we make?
