Up

Today to get some brownie points I'm going to do a review Up it's gonna start as a running commentary then summarise at the end.


Carl- old man
Russell-boy wilderness explorer( wants to be a senior)

Right so there this guy called Carl (it starts off as him as a young boy that meets a girl but I'm way past that point and I'm trying to keep up with the movie)  basically lives on a building site, hits a guy with his walking stick. So he gets punished by getting sent to a care home but ties his house up with lots of balloons and Russell sneaks up with him as he was hiding under the porch.
Then they hit a storm and Russell steers them out of it ( with this wacky thing that Carl made)Then they realise where they are, but they are on the wrong side of the grand canyon!
So they have to walk to the right side to get top Paradise Falls. As they are walking over there they get to a jungle where they meet a bird which is nicknamed Kevin( Russell called him that) then Russel asks Ellie (Carl's dead wife) if he can keep him as Carl wont let him. Then they are walking through this like rock jungle then hiding behind this rock they meet a dog called Dug that can speak through It's collar but gets distracted easily-SQUIRREL- and there is a whole little posse of dogs and the leader Alpha has a funny voice collar. During a heartfelt moment Russell talked about his dad and how he never sees him and Phyllis(step mum) says he should stop bothering him .
(skipping about 15 minutes)
They meet Charles Muntz ( He used to be an explorer until he got called a fraud because he brought a giant bird skeleton but the public thought it was a fake) and go inside his floating ship thing where they are so many more dogs than can speak and Dug has to wear the collar of SHAME! This evil guy wants the bird(Kevin who is a girl) as proof that he is not a fraud . But he caught Kevin so then Carl and Russell save her (during this Charles falls to his death) and let her go back to her chicks. then they go back to the city where Russell gets his Assisting the Elderly badge but Carl gives him it as his dad is a no-show. At the end it shows the house in Ellie's dream place right next to Paradise Falls.
Overall this is a great movie with lots of humour i recommend this to anyone; young or old!
