UP
Up is a computer-animated adventure film directed by
Pete Docter. It was released by Walt Disney Pictures in 2009 and opened the 2009
Cannes Film Festival in France - becoming the first animated film to do so
The main character of the film is a balloon salesman called Carl Fredrickson, who lives with
his wife Ellie One of Ellie's dreams is to visit Paradise Falls in South America After Ellie
dies, Carl lives alone for many years and eventually he decides to fulfil Ellie's desire and go
to Paradise Falls. It is an amazing adventure and he is joined, unexpectedly, by a young boy
They meet some colourful characters on their journey including Dug, a dog that can
speak and Kevin, a colourful tropical bird When Carl and his friends meet the evil
explorer Charles Muntz, their adventure almost turns into a nightmare.
It's easy to see why Up became the summer blockbuster of 2009. It
has a gripping plot and an excellent cast of voice actors. Edward
Asner starring as Carl, gives a very amusing performance The
soundtrack composed by Michael Giacchino is also excellent and
the film's graphics really make the characters come alive
Up is an imaginative and touching film that animation fans of all
ages are sure to enjoy. It is highly recommended.
Up was made in the USA. *
