SYNOPSIS/PLOT

By tying thousands of balloon to his home, 78-year-old Carl Fredricksen sets out to fulfill his lifelong dream to see the wilds of South America. Right after lifting off, however, he learns he isn’t alone on his journey, since Russell, a wilderness explorer 70 years his junior, has inadvertently become a stowaway on the trip.

PRO REVIEWS

----------------------------------------
"A breathtaking ride into the realm of pure imagination. (...) wonderfully funny and touching (...) 'Up' works miracles. Just sit back and watch it fly. (...) Rating: **** (out of four)." (Peter Travers: Rolling Stone)

----------------------------------------
"Extending the patented Pixar mix of humor and heart, Up is the studio's most deeply emotional and affecting work". (Richard Corliss: Time)

----------------------------------------
"Like the opener of 'Wall-E' and the critic’s Proustian reminiscence of childhood in 'Ratatouille,' this is filmmaking at its purest. (...) As in their finest work, the Pixar filmmakers have created thrilling cinema simply by rifling through its history." (Manohla Dargis: The New York Times)

----------------------------------------
"Up is a wonderful film, with characters who are as believable as any characters can be who spend much of their time floating above the rain forests of Venezuela. (...) Rating: **** (out of four)." (Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times)
