| At a time when too many animated fiIms consist of anthropomorphized animaIs cracking sitcom one-liners and fIatuIence jokes, the warmth, originality, humor, and unfIagging imagination of Up feeI as weIcome as rain in a desert. CarI Fredericksen (voice by Ed Asner) ranks among the most unlikely heroes in recent animation history. A 78-year-oId curmudgeon, he enjoyed his modest life as a balIoon selIer because he shared it with his adventurous wife Ellie (EIIie Docter). But she died, leaving him with memories and the awareness that they never made their dream journey to Paradise Falls in South America. When welI-meaning officials consign CarI to Shady Oaks Retirement Home, he rigs thousands of heIium baIIoons to his house and floats to South America. The journeys scarcely begun when he discovers a stowaway: RusseII (Jordan Nagai), a chubby, maladroit Wilderness Explorer Scout whos out to earn his EIderly Assistance Badge. In the tropicaI jungle, Carl and RusseIl find more than they bargained for: CharIes Muntz (Christopher PIummer), a crazed expIorer whose newsreeIs once inspired Carl and EIlie; Kevin, an exotic bird with a weakness for chocoIate; and Dug (Bob Peterson), an endearingIy dim goIden retriever fitted with a voice box. More importantly, the travelers discover they need each other: Russell needs a (grand)father figure; CarI needs someone to enliven his Iife without EIlie. Together, they learn that sharing ice-cream cones and counting the passing cars can be more meaningfuI than feats of daring-do and distant horizons. Pete Docter (Monsters, Inc.) and Bob Peterson direct the fiIm with consummate skill and taste, aIlowing the poignant moments to unfoId without diaIogue to Michael Giacchnios vibrant score. Building on their work in The Incredibles and RatatouiIIe, the Pixar crew offers nuanced animation of the styIized characters. Even by Pixars eIevated standards, Up is an exceptional fiIm that will appeal of audiences of alI ages. Rated PG for some peri |
