Up

UP is a 2009 American computer-animated comedy-drama, adventure film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. Directed by Pete Docter and co-directed by Bob Peterson which released in August 2009.

The story started with a young Carl Fredrickson working as a toy-balloon vendor meets a young adventure spirited girl named Ellie. They become closed friends and married, both dream of going to a Lost Land in South America. They promise each other that they would travel together to Paradise Falls and build a house there. Many years later, Ellie has died of old age before they can take their trip. Carl who's lonely and 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 by tying thousands of balloons to float his house and en-route to his dream adventure.

Right after lifting off, however, he learns he isn't alone on his journey, a wilderness explorer seventy years his junior, an eight years old boy named Russell, whose trying to get an assisting the elderly badge has inadvertently become a stowaway on the trip and Carl sees no other choice but to bring the boy with him. Together, they embark in an adventure, where they encounter talking dogs, an evil villain and a rare bird named Kevin.

For the first ten to fifteen minutes of watching the film, it moved me so beautifully as it tells the story of the wonderful life that Carl and his wife Ellie share together till they old. Carl being a lovable character, you can feel the joy that he feels and his loss when his wife passes away. Despite, each and every character in the film provides their own bit of humor, the fun and charming story between Carl and Russell and a tale of a man who never experienced what he wanted the most in life. Carl might seems to be a fairly mean old man but the film spends a great deal of time to develop him into an emotional wreck of a man. Personally, I felt easily being emotionally impactful of the entire film.

"Each morning the day lies like a fresh shirt on our bed; this incomparably fine, incomparably tightly woven tissue of pure prediction fits us perfectly. The happiness of the next twenty-four hours depends on our ability, on waking, to pick it up."

"Don't be too timid and squeamish about your actions. All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better. What if they are a little course, and you may get your coat soiled or torn? What if you do fail, and get fairly rolled in the dirt once or twice. Up again, you shall never be so afraid of a tumble."

God bless!
