What did I like from this movie?
1. The old Carl's attitude... so grumpy, really funny!
2. Russell, the explorer kid... so annoying! but really funny
3. Kevin, the weird bird. Definitely my favorite character in this movie. I laughed so much when they found it in the middle of the jungle and Kevin shows some "love" to the old grumpy Carl
4. The plot was simply amazing, bringing mixed emotions and lessons about life not just for kids, but adults

I'm not that into kids movies, but I must say that I have my favorite ones. We finally had the chance to watch this movie and I have to admit that Up has officially become one of those top favorite kids movies. Pixar always brings the best of the best. They did it big time with The Incredibles, then with Cars, and now with this amazing and really funny movie... Up. What I like the most about this movie, is that the destination was inspired in the "Salto Angel" water falls and the ancient "Tepuis", in Venezuela.
What I really like about these movies from Pixar is that they mix all the magic of cartoons and kids' fantasies with real emotions and life experiences. In this case, I totally enjoyed how they were able to mix real emotions and life experiences like showing the life of Carl, growing up, getting married, fighting for his dreams and goals in life, loosing the love of his life and finally being able to take the decision to fight for his dream. Lots of hilarious situations, especially with the kid (the explorer kid), the talking dog and Kevin, the weird bird. Definitely an amazing movie that not just every single kid must watch, but every single adult. I totally recommend this movie!What did I like from this movie?

Enjoy it!... Watch it!
We loved this movie but don't think it's really for kids, it's so sad. The animation is fantastic though!
I just wish Julia didn't have to see the part where that guy was trying to shoot little Russel. I really think they should have toned that part down for the kids' sake.
Yes, I believe it's moe a for mature kids or adults... especially for some sad moments, when he loses his wife.
But the movie, images, graphics and plot are amazing!
