movie - "Up".

Kevin(the rare bird), Russell(a wilderness explorer), Doug(a talking dog) and Mr Fredrickson.

                                                                         Ellie and Carl.




 story:


a young Carl Fredrickson whom only yearns to be a pilot one day, meets a young, tomboyish, adventure spirited girl named Ellie. They both dream of saving up and live on the top of Paradise Falls, located in South America. But as years pass by, they keep using that saved money. 70 years later, Ellie has died. Carl remembers the promise he made to her. Then, when he inadvertently hits a construction worker, he is forced to go to a retirement home. But before they can take him, he and his house fly away. Carl, tied a whole bunch of balloons to his house, thus enabling it to float. However he has a stowaway aboard. An 8 year old boy named Russell, whose trying to get an assisting the elderly badge. Together, they embark in an adventure, where they encounter talking dogs, an evil villain and a rare bird named Kevin. Little did Carl know, that his adventure towards Paradise Fall will have a chain effect on another adventure.

my say:

one of the best Pixar's done up to date.The beginning of the movie defined happiness and sadness. It reflects on Carl's life on how he first met Ellie, married her, visualized through their joys and pains and sadly, up to Ellie's death. This reflection towards the scene may bring up a tear in one's eyes and reminds us of how quickly the years add up. I loved how they played the graphics on the balloons. Everything else was good.

what it thought me:

you are never at the end of an adventure, as after the end, there would always be another one. never ever hold on to your past, learn to let go, let it fly "Up".


rating: 4.5/5
