I idea 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 terrorized young boy star-struck by a noted explorer; and kookie Ellie, who has a similar obsession. The two kids become speedy friends, and thunder to one day proceed to Venezuela’s Paradise Falls. After getting married, they acquire their dream home and fix it up, hoping to gain it with children. Carl and Ellie’s life together from childhood through feeble age is depicted, silently, with delicacy and subtlety. The first 15 minutes is like a celebration of a ecstatic marriage, and you truly feel Carl’s harm when he is left alone. He sits slumped in his chair, talking to the house as if it is the missing Ellie.
When developers terminate in on Carl’s beloved home, he decides to fulfill his promise to Ellie and disappear to Paradise Falls. A primitive balloon vendor, Carl lifts his home with hundreds of gleaming balloons. Stowing away on the porch is Russell, a tubby, dauntless kid trying to acquire a scouting badge.

After landing in Paradise Falls, the archaic man and the dinky boy are joined by a golden retriever named Dug who can talk with his collar, and a spacious 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 halt 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 dark 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 comely 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 unusual world.
Up is a deeply emotional film, chunky of truth. It’s the year’s best film. Catch another triumph for Pixar.
Someday, Pixar is going to do it — they’re going to manufacture an emotionally uninspiring, lackluster moving movie. But in the meantime, they’re serene putting out savory lively movies like “Up,” which defies the usual kid-movie conventions by starring a crotchety customary man. It’s a charming, fun minute adventure chronicle with flying dogs and balloon-powered houses, but underlying it is a bittersweet runt sage about loss and adore.
As a child, the vexed Carl Fredricksen bonded with the oddball Ellie over their shared care for 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 steady 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 alive to, naive Wilderness Explorer (a thinly-veiled Boy Scout) named Russell (Jordan Nagai) along for the wobble. Abominable kid was impartial trying to glean an “assisting the elderly” badge.
And the jungle scurry to Paradise Falls turns out to have some surprising obstacles: a titanic 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 feeble guy is very familiar to Carl — and to steal Kevin, he’s willing to sacrifice Carl and Russell.
Industry experts were babbling about how “Up” wouldn’t be as favorite as the previous Pixar movies, because the protagonist is basically a crusty faded 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 delight in Carl’s fancy for his lost wife, and his expressionless 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 demonstrate all the ups and downs of a realistic marriage — joys, sorrows (Ellie’s inability to have children), growing mature together, and finally loss.
But it’s not a depressing movie by any stretch — in fact, it’s like a childhood fantasy advance to life, complete with a floating house suspended on hundreds of balloons, and biplanes piloted by a talking dog army.. Plenty of substantial dialogue (“Do you want to play a game? It’s called Peep Who Can Go the Longest Without Saying Anything.” “Cold! My mom loves that game!”) and an action-packed climax in an stale airship.
Ed Asner is absolutely perfect as ubergrouch Carl — crotchety, grumpy, and clear 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 clear to reunite Kevin with her baby chicks. And the utterly adorable Dug and the other dogs deserve special observe. These creatures are utterly hilarious — they talk (“I hid under your porch because I like you”) and act the map 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 gain shafted because the Blu-ray edition will have a bunch of outlandish 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 remark potentially improper 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 spicy, emotionally layered movies that the entire family can luxuriate in. With that, I have only one more thing to say… SQUIRREL!
