UP


This year, forget about the highly anticipated Transformers 2, or the dissapointing GI Joe, which only saving grace is the chase in Paris, if you want to watch a movie which has a soul and heart and all the hilarity that one can get from a movie, then you MUST watch UP.
Pixar have proven time and time again that they are the best in the business of computer animation and dare I say movie making itself...(except maybe a little mishap which I am calling it "CARS")
It started off funnily with the shorts like in the normal tradition of Pixar called "Partly Cloudy" That already started the ball rolling to what's to come. That already has heart in it.
Then we moved on to the main story where we met the protagonist (Carl Frederickson) as a kid who meeting his soul mate, Ellie by chance and we see their life story unfold upon us as they dreamed to go on an adventure in South America. Although no words was utterred but the scenes in itself was moving, as Ellie moved on leaving old Carl behind.
The adventure begins when Old Carl took off with his house with thousands of balloons and with the reluctant boy scout Russell in tow. I won't go much into the story or else it would be spoiling readers enjoyment of their adventure in the wilderness.
All I can say that this is one adventure that is worth tagging along with and it's simply a deligthful movie that will appeal to everyone regardless of age.
