I plan it would be tough for Up to match the emotional power of Wall-E. The two Pixar films are similar in their lack of dialogue in the first act, which helps deepen the emotional impact. Up begins with Carl, a vexed young boy star-struck by a renowned explorer; and kookie Ellie, who has a similar obsession. The two kids become speedily friends, and issue to one day recede to Venezuela’s Paradise Falls. After getting married, they engage their dream home and fix it up, hoping to maintain it with children. Carl and Ellie’s life together from childhood through worn age is depicted, silently, with delicacy and subtlety. The first 15 minutes is like a celebration of a blissful marriage, and you truly feel Carl’s damage when he is left alone. He sits slumped in his chair, talking to the house as if it is the missing Ellie.
When developers cessation in on Carl’s beloved home, he decides to fulfill his promise to Ellie and proceed to Paradise Falls. A ancient balloon vendor, Carl lifts his home with hundreds of knowing balloons. Stowing away on the porch is Russell, a chunky, valorous kid trying to rep a scouting badge.

After landing in Paradise Falls, the feeble man and the microscopic boy are joined by a golden retriever named Dug who can talk with his collar, and a expansive rare bird that bonds with Russell (he names her “Kevin”) . Dug is priceless: spot-on for every dog that ever lived, including an obsession with squirrels. Through a series of terminate calls and adventures, the quartet vanquishes a villain, saving the day. And Russell earns his scouting badge.
In the process, Carl learns to let go of his sunless mourning for Ellie, and live life again. When this happens, a truly magical thing happens. Before, Carl’s craggy face is gray and monochromatic. At the moment of his transformation, Carl’s face is awash in color, and he is surrounded by gorgeous hues. It reminded me of The Wizard of Oz, when Dorothy steps out of her gray world and into a candy-colored Munchkinland. Carl, too, enters a whole current world.
Up is a deeply emotional film, plump of truth. It’s the year’s best film. Gather another triumph for Pixar.
Someday, Pixar is going to do it — they’re going to execute an emotionally uninspiring, lackluster enchanting movie. But in the meantime, they’re unruffled putting out exquisite absorbing movies like “Up,” which defies the usual kid-movie conventions by starring a crotchety venerable man. It’s a charming, fun small adventure yarn with flying dogs and balloon-powered houses, but underlying it is a bittersweet itsy-bitsy epic about loss and cherish.
As a child, the troubled Carl Fredricksen bonded with the oddball Ellie over their shared like of adventure, the explorer Charles Muntz, and Paradise Falls. They later married, recede into their “clubhouse” together, and lived a long, sadly childless life together. When Ellie died, she had never fulfilled her dream of going to Paradise Falls.
Now crotchety, alone and harassed by a precise estate developer, Carl (Ed Asner) is finally ordered to a retirement home. But he isn’t going quietly — instead he attaches thousands of balloons to his house and floats it away toward South America. But he accidentally takes an eager, naive Wilderness Explorer (a thinly-veiled Boy Scout) named Russell (Jordan Nagai) along for the inch. Terrible kid was unbiased trying to come by an “assisting the elderly” badge.
And the jungle chase to Paradise Falls turns out to have some surprising obstacles: a great emulike bird that Russell names Kevin, a talking dog named Dug (”I am jumping on you, bird!”), and a mysterious outmoded man who lives deep in the heart of the jungle. Turns out the faded guy is very familiar to Carl — and to hold Kevin, he’s willing to sacrifice Carl and Russell.
Industry experts were babbling about how “Up” wouldn’t be as common as the previous Pixar movies, because the protagonist is basically a crusty feeble coot. Well, shows what they know. It ended up becoming one of those classic movies that somehow appeals to all ages — while the humor and action appeal to children, adults can indulge in Carl’s worship for his lost wife, and his insensible realization that he’s clinging to the past.
In fact, the first ten minutes are some of the most heart-tugging, quietly bittersweet scenes I’ve seen in a long time. Without a word, they point to all the ups and downs of a realistic marriage — joys, sorrows (Ellie’s inability to have children), growing faded together, and finally loss.
But it’s not a depressing movie by any stretch — in fact, it’s like a childhood fantasy arrive to life, complete with a floating house suspended on hundreds of balloons, and biplanes piloted by a talking dog army.. Plenty of huge dialogue (”Do you want to play a game? It’s called Glimpse Who Can Go the Longest Without Saying Anything.” “Frigid! My mom loves that game!”) and an action-packed climax in an venerable airship.
Ed Asner is absolutely perfect as ubergrouch Carl — crotchety, grumpy, and obvious to fulfill his wife’s lifelong dream, but gradually realizing he’s clinging to the past. Nagai is equally perfect as Carl’s polar opposite: a naive, chattery Scout who is obvious to reunite Kevin with her baby chicks. And the utterly adorable Dug and the other dogs deserve special contemplate. These creatures are utterly hilarious — they talk (”I hid under your porch because I like you”) and act the method dogs would if they talked. Three words: cone of shame.
The two-disc edition is going to have some very nice extras, but once again people with regular-def DVDs are going to catch shafted because the Blu-ray edition will have a bunch of unfamiliar stuff. Grr. As for this one, there’s a digital copy, the director’s audio commentary, kinda-alternate-ending “The Many Endings of Muntz,” and the documentary “Adventure Is Out There” about the research for this movie.
There are also a pair of adorable though-provoking shorts. “Partly Cloudy” has a much-abused stork having to screech potentially cross baby creatures from a kind but clueless cloud. And “Dug’s Special Mission” is a sort of backstory for the adorable Dug, explaining what the heck he was doing before he met up with Carl and Russell.
“Up” continues Pixar’s running tally of gloriously provocative, emotionally layered movies that the entire family can be pleased. With that, I have only one more thing to say… SQUIRREL!
