Leave your thoughts about Up.
| Radio TimesAlan JonesUp is breathtaking in its imaginative detail and astonishing in its emotional range. |
| Chicago Daily HeraldDann GireThe first 10 minutes of Pixar's fantastical 3-D animated adventure Up are a sublime testimonial to the purity and magic of the cinema. I know because I was a sobbing basket case by Minute 11. |
| Time Out ChicagoHank SartinThe pacing is perfect, the animation looks terrific, the emotional range is wide, and there are a few sly jokes you might not catch the first time around. That's okay; you'll want to see it a second time anyway. |
| American ProfileNeil PondNo matter how you look at it, through the innocent eyes of a child or the wider, wiser worldview of an adult, the bright, buoyant Up brims with imagination, adventure, humor and heart. |
| The Film YapNick RogersAdventure is about escaping death's closure, but it's also about clinging to life's openness - letting one escapade's end evolve into something new. "Up" is a tremendously affecting story of indomitable love, infectious spirit and embraced possibilities. |
| QuickflixSimon MiraudoHas there ever been a bolder moment in a children's film than one in which the lead character essentially sets off on his final journey into the heavens? |
| Fan The FireSam BatheDon't be surprised if Up is sitting pretty atop our top 10 films of the year list come the New Year. |
| ScreenRantKofi OutlawUp is arguably Pixar's finest achievement to date, and is surprisingly mature (and moving) in its subject matter. |
| NewsBlazeKam WilliamsAn instant cartoon classic coming courtesy of a successful collaboration by the good folks at Disney and Pixar. |
| Film4Matthew De AbaituaThe creative leadership of the Pixar team restores clarity, simplicity, and courage to storytelling, establishing a daunting gold standard for family films. |
