One of my most anticipated movies in 2009. Heart this movie since I saw the teaser poster. I thought, this one has got to be a good one! And it turned out to be...
AWESOME!!!
There's Carl Fredricksen, a grumpy old widow, lives alone and has no interest to mingle. The man loves his late wife very much, he always keeps their dreams, to have a great adventure and to have a house near the Paradise Falls. Bothered by the construction workers, who eventually gave him court summon to leave the house, he chose to refuse by floating his house with hundreds of balloons. Accidentally, he brought Russel with him. Russel, an elementary boy scout who has a dream to become a Wilderness Explorer. With Russel, Carl began a new adventure.
UP IS ABOVE!!
Please allow me to say, WOW!
Up is not only an original idea with charming story and hillarious jokes, but Up, is one of the few best animated movies with a beautiful point of objective, 'just don't lose your sense of adventure, guys'.
Started with a short movie, about clouds that create things, it's about love and trust Oh, it's just funny, but wait.. it's also very touching in the end. Short and sharp!
The film itself brought very a deep and memorable scene, in my opinion. Oh, how much I cried on the flashbacks scene of Carl and Ellie. With beautiful theme song from Michael Giacchino, the scene was able to touch deeply and simply describe the meaning of togetherness in happy and sad, in sickness and health, the meaning of love.
When it comes to the adventure, people were laughing hard. Heck I laugh so hard till I had a sorethroat last night. So funny and thrilling, people were not just laughing, they even screamed. Ovation were heard many times. Russel's behavior, he is so cute, I just wanna keep him in my closet! Those stupid dogs, dogs that talk! What's up with dog and Squirrels anyway? "LOL*
Watchout people, they are funnnnyyy!
Up is the best animated movie since a very.. very long time.
