Product Description
Disney Up (Blu-ray)Carl Fredricksen spent his entire life dreaming of exploring the globe and experiencing life to its fullest. But at age 78, life seemsto have passed him by, until a twist of fate (anda persistent 8-year old Wilderness Explorer namedRussell) gives him a new lease on life.
Amazon.com
At a time when too many animated films consist of anthropomorphized animals cracking sitcom one-liners and flatulence jokes, the warmth, originality, humor, and unflagging imagination of Up feel as welcome as rain in a desert. Carl Fredericksen (voice by Ed Asner) ranks among the most unlikely heroes in recent animation history. A 78- year-old curmudgeon, he enjoyed his modest life as a balloon seller because he shared it with his adventurous wife Ellie (Ellie Docter). But she died, leaving him with memories and the awareness that they never made their dream journey to Paradise Falls in South America. When well-meaning officials consign Carl to Shady Oaks Retirement Home, he rigs thousands of helium balloons to his house and floats to South America. The journey's scarcely begun when he discovers a stowaway: Russell (Jordan Nagai), a chubby, maladroit Wilderness Explorer Scout who's out to earn his Elderly Assistance Badge. In the tropical jungle, Carl and Russell find more than they bargained for: Charles Muntz (Christopher Plummer), a crazed explorer whose newsreels once inspired Carl and Ellie; Kevin, an exotic bird with a weakness for chocolate; and Dug (Bob Peterson), an endearingly dim golden retriever fitted with a voice box. More importantly, the travelers discover they need each other: Russell needs a (grand)father figure; Carl needs someone to enliven his life without Ellie. Together, they learn that sharing ice-cream cones and counting the passing cars can be more meaningful than feats of daring-do and distant horizons. Pete Docter (Monsters, Inc. ) and Bob Peterson direct the film with consummate skill and taste, allowing the poignant moments to unfold without dialogue to Michael Giacchnio's vibrant score. Building on their work in The Incredibles and Ratatouille, the Pixar crew offers nuanced animation of the stylized characters. Even by Pixar's elevated standards, Up is an exceptional film that will appeal of audiences of all ages. Rated PG for some peril and action. --Charles Solomon

 Wonderful family movie! March 16, 2010
Barbie Durbin
We love this movie. I think we have watched the whole movie three times. Then we go back to favorite parts and start over again. When we wear it out, we'll buy another!
Great movie, awesome set March 15, 2010

This movie is fantastic, but this is a review of the Blu-ray set.
You get 4 discs here even though 2 of them really matter.
Disc 1 has the movie and a bunch of shorts.
Disc 2 has a bunch of documentaries and games
Disc 3 has the movie on dvd
Disc 4 has your digital copy
There is a lot here but the only ones that matter are the first 2 discs.
There is a ton of stuff on those 2 discs, so be prepared to be entertained for quite some time.
Something I have to mention and I have read it is an issue. I bought a LG BD 390 Network Blu-ray Disc Player and the blu-ray disc takes almost 3 minutes to load. At first I thought it was some sort of defect, but its a known issue with this movie a ton of players.
 OK Movie March 15, 2010

Overall this was an OK movie. My husband and kids (age 6-13) liked it a lot. I liked parts of it. The beginning seemed like it was more for adults than kids. My husband and I had to explain it to our younger kids. The plot started to wear on me toward the end. It started to get pretty silly. But like I say, my kids loved it. I'm not sorry we bought it.
 Great Movie, Awesome Service March 14, 2010

The product shipped extremely fast and I love the movie. The Disc was new, in perfect condition, and included original packaging and cover sleeve for the case.
