Winner of two Academy Awards®, including Best Animated Freature. Carl Fredrickson, a retired balloon salesman, is part rascal, part dreamer who is ready for his last chance at high-flying excitement. Tying thousands of balloons to his house, Carl sets off to the lost world of his childhood dreams. Unbeknownst to Carl, Russell, an overeager 8-year old Wildnerness Explorer who has never ventured beyond his backyard, is in the wrong place at the wrong time -- Carl's front porch! The world's most unlikely duo reach new heights and meets fantastic friends like Dug, a dog with a special collar that allows him to speak, and Kevin, the rare 13-foot tall flightless bird. Stuck together in the wilds of the jungle, Carl realizes that sometimes life's biggest adventures aren't the ones you set out for.

My Date Night with an Animated Balloon and a Bunch of Emotions! A Love Story Soar-iously Hilarious!
Introduction:So, I thought I was buying a movie, but little did I know, I was purchasing a one-way ticket to the most emotionally turbulent and laugh-inducing journey ever. "Up," or as I like to call it, "My Balloon Date Gone Wild!"Unboxing and First Impressions:The Blu-ray case looked so innocent, like it was saying, "Hey, this is just a cute animation!" Little did I know, it was preparing to unleash a hilarious rollercoaster of feelings that would make even my therapist reconsider her career.Features and Specifications:This Blu-ray isn't just a movie; it's a masterclass in emotional manipulation! 3D animation, heartfelt storytelling, and a lesson in navigating life's absurdities—it's got it all. Even my toaster doesn't toast with such depth!How to Use:Instructions: Pop it in and press play. But let me tell you, it's not just a movie night; it's a journey. Pack emotional snacks because you'll need 'em.Personal Experience/Story:Date night! I thought "Up" would set the mood—little did I know, it made the evening a helium-filled disaster. My attempt to impress turned into a balloon-popping fiasco. On the bright side, my date now thinks I'm a balloon animal artist.Family time! Decided to watch it with my parents. They laughed, they cried, and then, they asked if I'd ever find a love as strong as the old man and the boy scout. Thanks, "Up," for setting unrealistic relationship goals.Workplace disaster! Shared it at the office to lift spirits. Turns out, a room full of adults crying over animated dogs isn't the best morale booster. Result: fired for creating a Pixar-induced emotional hazard.Pros:Takes you on an emotional rollercoaster—strap in!Gorgeous animation; I swear the balloons looked real!Teaches life lessons without a preachy PowerPoint.Cons:The bad feature? You know those animated tears? Yeah, they're contagious. I accidentally made a grown man cry in the electronics aisle. Sorry, random dude at the store.Value for Money:This Blu-ray not only entertained but added an emotional layer to my life. Who needs therapy when you have an old man and a house floating with balloons to guide you through life's ups and downs?Conclusion:"Up" isn't just a movie; it's a life-altering experience. It turned my living room into a comedy club, therapy session, and Pixar-themed carnival. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to laugh, cry, and question their choices in animated entertainment.Recommendation:If you're ready for a date night full of animated hilarity and accidental balloon animal skills, "Up" is your ticket. Just make sure to bring tissues—emotionally and for the popped balloons.Final Thoughts:"Up," you magnificent helium-filled masterpiece, you've made my life simultaneously funnier and weirder. To anyone hesitating, don't—float into the world of "Up" and let the laughter and tears mix in the most beautiful chaos.Rating:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 out of 5 balloons—because laughter is the ultimate emotional lift!

Very entertaining and well worth buying.
Vastly entertaining for all ages with a moral behind it. Bought this after our son and grandson told us about it. So pleased that I did. A sad but funny story. Well worth buying.

Moving and funny
Carl as a lad meets Ellie, who persuades the cautious Carl to live life. They marry and are happy, but sadly Ellie dies. Carl had always wanted to visit Angel Falls in Venezuela - he is driven out of his home town by property developers, but gets the assistance of Russell, a boy scout who ends up on the doorstep when Carl floats the house away hanging from huge numbers of balloons. Together they explore the plateau where the Falls are situated, and foil the ruthless hunter who seeks to ensnare the last of the rare birds found there. The sad start is justified, but the film is warm and upbeat, ending on a very happy note and it's the best cartoon I've seen for a long while.
