Here’s a movie for dog lovers, the elderly, children of divorce, FOBs (Friends of Birds), extinct Boy Scouts, people yearning for adventure, and anyone who has ever loved… and lost. Up is for everyone. It made me laugh out loud, and it made me shout.

I opinion it would be tough for Up to match the emotional power of Wall-E. The two Pixar films are similar in their lack of dialogue in the first act, which helps deepen the emotional impact. Up begins with Carl, a disquieted young boy star-struck by a illustrious explorer; and kookie Ellie, who has a similar obsession. The two kids become rapid friends, and screech to one day recede to Venezuela’s Paradise Falls. After getting married, they hold their dream home and fix it up, hoping to possess it with children. Carl and Ellie’s life together from childhood through weak age is depicted, silently, with delicacy and subtlety. The first 15 minutes is like a celebration of a satisfied marriage, and you truly feel Carl’s afflict when he is left alone. He sits slumped in his chair, talking to the house as if it is the missing Ellie.
When developers stop in on Carl’s beloved home, he decides to fulfill his promise to Ellie and depart to Paradise Falls. A passe balloon vendor, Carl lifts his home with hundreds of incandescent balloons. Stowing away on the porch is Russell, a chubby, valiant kid trying to accumulate a scouting badge.

After landing in Paradise Falls, the ancient man and the puny boy are joined by a golden retriever named Dug who can talk with his collar, and a gargantuan rare bird that bonds with Russell (he names her “Kevin”) . Dug is priceless: spot-on for every dog that ever lived, including an obsession with squirrels. Through a series of cessation calls and adventures, the quartet vanquishes a villain, saving the day. And Russell earns his scouting badge.
In the process, Carl learns to let go of his dark mourning for Ellie, and live life again. When this happens, a truly magical thing happens. Before, Carl’s craggy face is gray and monochromatic. At the moment of his transformation, Carl’s face is awash in color, and he is surrounded by fine hues. It reminded me of The Wizard of Oz, when Dorothy steps out of her gray world and into a candy-colored Munchkinland. Carl, too, enters a whole novel world.
Up is a deeply emotional film, paunchy of truth. It’s the year’s best film. Gather another triumph for Pixar.
Someday, Pixar is going to do it — they’re going to construct an emotionally uninspiring, lackluster interesting movie. But in the meantime, they’re peaceful putting out scrumptious curious movies like “Up,” which defies the usual kid-movie conventions by starring a crotchety stale man. It’s a charming, fun shrimp adventure account with flying dogs and balloon-powered houses, but underlying it is a bittersweet slight narrative about loss and adore.
As a child, the timid Carl Fredricksen bonded with the oddball Ellie over their shared treasure of adventure, the explorer Charles Muntz, and Paradise Falls. They later married, proceed into their “clubhouse” together, and lived a long, sadly childless life together. When Ellie died, she had never fulfilled her dream of going to Paradise Falls.
Now crotchety, alone and harassed by a true estate developer, Carl (Ed Asner) is finally ordered to a retirement home. But he isn’t going quietly — instead he attaches thousands of balloons to his house and floats it away toward South America. But he accidentally takes an fervent, naive Wilderness Explorer (a thinly-veiled Boy Scout) named Russell (Jordan Nagai) along for the plod. Unpleasant kid was impartial trying to fetch an “assisting the elderly” badge.
And the jungle crawl to Paradise Falls turns out to have some surprising obstacles: a mammoth emulike bird that Russell names Kevin, a talking dog named Dug (”I am jumping on you, bird!”), and a mysterious primitive man who lives deep in the heart of the jungle. Turns out the faded guy is very familiar to Carl — and to win Kevin, he’s willing to sacrifice Carl and Russell.
Industry experts were babbling about how “Up” wouldn’t be as common as the previous Pixar movies, because the protagonist is basically a crusty conventional coot. Well, shows what they know. It ended up becoming one of those classic movies that somehow appeals to all ages — while the humor and action appeal to children, adults can luxuriate in Carl’s fancy for his lost wife, and his wearisome realization that he’s clinging to the past.
In fact, the first ten minutes are some of the most heart-tugging, quietly bittersweet scenes I’ve seen in a long time. Without a word, they point to all the ups and downs of a realistic marriage — joys, sorrows (Ellie’s inability to have children), growing outmoded together, and finally loss.
But it’s not a depressing movie by any stretch — in fact, it’s like a childhood fantasy approach to life, complete with a floating house suspended on hundreds of balloons, and biplanes piloted by a talking dog army.. Plenty of tall dialogue (”Do you want to play a game? It’s called Notice Who Can Go the Longest Without Saying Anything.” “Cold! My mom loves that game!”) and an action-packed climax in an old-fashioned airship.
Ed Asner is absolutely perfect as ubergrouch Carl — crotchety, grumpy, and certain to fulfill his wife’s lifelong dream, but gradually realizing he’s clinging to the past. Nagai is equally perfect as Carl’s polar opposite: a naive, chattery Scout who is definite to reunite Kevin with her baby chicks. And the utterly adorable Dug and the other dogs deserve special spy. These creatures are utterly hilarious — they talk (”I hid under your porch because I care for you”) and act the procedure dogs would if they talked. Three words: cone of shame.
The two-disc edition is going to have some very nice extras, but once again people with regular-def DVDs are going to net shafted because the Blu-ray edition will have a bunch of unique stuff. Grr. As for this one, there’s a digital copy, the director’s audio commentary, kinda-alternate-ending “The Many Endings of Muntz,” and the documentary “Adventure Is Out There” about the research for this movie.
There are also a pair of adorable tantalizing shorts. “Partly Cloudy” has a much-abused stork having to protest potentially contaminated baby creatures from a kind but clueless cloud. And “Dug’s Special Mission” is a sort of backstory for the adorable Dug, explaining what the heck he was doing before he met up with Carl and Russell.
“Up” continues Pixar’s running tally of gloriously enthralling, emotionally layered movies that the entire family can bask in. With that, I have only one more thing to say… SQUIRREL!
