November 28, 2009I wasn't expecting to cry in the beginning. I thought it was cute, but not as amazing as everyone made it out to be. It was kinda slow moving for me. The short film in the beginning was the best part.

November 24, 2009Not a lot to say about this one, except that I'm willing to admit I cried...
Must be a girl thing, not sure... but I gotta say that "Up" is definitely 'up' there with the best in the league.
It's a simple film with soul, incorporating emotion and what I guess we can call 'grown ...( read more) -

Nice adventure tale...it was heartwarming indeed. Very cookie cutter formula, but that's okay. Pixar does it best. 4/5 baby -

November 29, 2009I really didn't expect to like this movie as much as I did. I figured it would be great simply due to the fact it's PIxar but Up has become one of my favorite Pixar movies.

Its charms appear to have been applied with surgical precision; by the end, I felt expertly sutured, but not much else. full review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
To watch Up with any attention is to be moved and astonished by the economy with which specific visuals are invested with emotion throughout. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Up is a breathtaking ride into the realm of pure imagination. Up shames the pap that now passes for family entertainment (yes, Night at the Museum 2, I'm talking to you). full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
From the title onward, Up is a stratospheric success. It's guaranteed to lift your spirits, and not with a pushy DreamWorks-style gag reel of celebrity voices and committee-processed one-liners. full review

Ty Burr, Boston Globe
Because the movie's grounded, it's free to fly where it wants, and it does so with an exuberance and poignancy that at times feels majestic. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Easily the summer's, and probably the year's, most enchanting movie, Up is a buoyant delight. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
This is a wonderful film. It tells a story. The characters are as believable as any characters can be who spend much of their time floating above the rain forests of Venezuela. full review
