We went to see Disney-Pixar’s latest hit “Up” yesterday at The Lyric in downtown Blacksburg and it was really good. Nic enjoyed it for the brilliant animation, slapstick humor and the talking dogs, while the adults in the theatre enjoyed the jokes to which only adults can relate - such as when Carl Frederickson tells Russell, a young Junior Wilderness Explorer, that they’re going to play a game called called “Let’s see who can stay quiet the longest,” to which Russell exclaims with glee, “My mom LOVES that game!”
This was a very well-done Pixar movie that had a little bit of everything. You fell in love with the characters very quickly thanks to the superb story-telling of Pixar’s writers and the fantastic voice acting by the entire cast. Per usual, there was one minor character that stole the show a bit and his name is Dug. He is a loveable dog outfitted with a high-tech collar that allows him to speak to people.
If you are a fan of the Pixar films, I highly recommend “Up!” And so does Nic!
