How can Pixar top this?

Up
Day 16
Film 16

I wanted to see Up in theaters and never got around to it. I saw it at Blockbuster last night and snatched it up immediately. Pixar has yet to let me down and Up is no exception.

What I loved about Up is that it is the kind of movie that is sewn together with such tender loving care one cannot help but be blown away by it. The characters are complex and instantly lovable and their adventure is awe inspiring and imaginative. Pixar really knocked it out of the park with this short and sweet tale of age and never giving up on your dreams.

Thinking back on the movie I do not think I can find any holes in it. The movie is short at just over 90 minutes and because of it it feels more like a finely crafted poem. Every scene is put in the perfect place and it makes this wonderful gem of a movie that does not drag, but does not feel like you missed anything.

I could ramble on and on about how much I loved Up, because I did. But I will not, save for this last sentence. Up is a wonderful, powerful amazing piece of animation and you should go and see it right now if you have not.
