Up Movie 2009

Up Movie 2009
Release Date: 29 May 2009 (USA)
MPAA Rating: PG

Up Movie 2009 is surprisingly moving for an animation. The characters are very well developed and come across with real personalities. Russell is just as sweet as he can be.

This is a movie the entire family can enjoy; young and old alike. There are serious problems to overcome and many compromises made to achieve the goals each character desires.

Just when Carl Fredricksen thinks his life is over, a new chapter is revealed. Old ideas are turned upside down and two people are somewhat reluctantly brought together only to find they have much to share.

The artwork and animation are so well done one can forget the characters aren't real and focus on the story. It doesn't feel like a cartoon.

The situations our characters find them selves in are all too real. The way they carry on in spite of the obstacles is inspiring.

Up Movie 2009 is an animation with heart. I don't want to give the plot away but you can see from the DVD jacket that there are strange and dangerous things happening to Kevin, Dug, Russell, and Mr. Fredricksen. (They have the sturdiest garden hose and crank ever made surely!)

Paradise Valley is the destination of the flying house held aloft by Carl Fredricksen's helium balloons. As if flying a house to South America wasn't enough danger, once there Russell befriends Kevin. And Kevin is Charles Muntz's long sought evidence for vindication in the world of science.

You will enjoy this movie if you like to see characters with huge ambitions faced with many grim challenges to overcome. From start to finish this captivating story with beautiful, skillfully presented artwork and animation will keep everyone frequently on the edge of their seats!

There are some bits of nastiness from Charles Muntz that could upset some young viewers I suppose. When his comeback plan becomes intolerable to the other characters there are severe consequences. That's why it's rated PG for some peril and action.
