This is another classic from Pixar. The movie has a fun and silly storyline involving an older man who seeks to fulfill his deceased wife's childhood dream. Along the way, he is joined by a boy scout, giant bird, and talking dog. Ultimately, they all realize the need to take on new roles in life and forge ahead. While the story (a floating house, talking dogs, etc.) were silly, I found the movie surprisingly mature and emotional. It actually really makes you think about how important it is to try to fulfill your dreams with your loved one while they're still alive. The first five minutes goes through their relationship and the joy of a happy marriage. It as enough to get me a bit misty-eyed.
In terms of the animation, the film looks great, especially in 3D. The animated old man is surprisingly realistic, even bearing stubble after a few days in the jungle. The best animation is in the brief cartoon at the beginning, in which several clouds make baby animals and give them to storks.
I'm looking forward to Pixar's next creation.Get more detail about Up (4 Disc Combo Pack with Digital Copy and DVD) [Blu-ray].
