Up is a film enjoyable for children and adults. The previews lead one to believe that this will be a simple, humor-driven; however, the film is so much more than this. Up is a sentimental story of love, loss, and friendship. The characters are lovable and with some dimension to their personalities all through the tale.

The beginning of the film presents viewers with a poignant love story of Carl, a balloon vendor, and his wife “Scout.” In time the film shifts focus to Carl’s desire to carry through with his promise to his wife when they were children and sets off on an action-filled adventure, with an accidental child companion.

This film offers great 3-D effects, substance, and unpredictability throughout. This is one children’s film everyone should see, whether you have children or not. After seeing Pixar’s latest film, you will understand why Up made history when it became the first animated movie ever to open the prestigious Cannes Film Festival.
