Movie Review- Up
Mr. Carl Fredickson was once a young boy who idolizes the adventurer Charles Munts. This led him to get close to his wife, Ellie Fredickson, who also happens to like the adventurer. They married but the couple had no children :( Being a fan of adventure, they promised to have their home in South America's Lost Land, called the Paradise Falls. But how could he get their home there?
"Simple", fly their house using lots of balloons. By saying "lots",I mean this much:
Oh look at those balloons!! :) If only it'd be that easy, I could just buy trucks of balloons, put it in our chimney and fly to wherever I want our house to land. I'd choose to live in the mountains! :) Unfortunately, we don't have chimneys in the Philippines :) I want to try it at least once in my life: To see the skies up close. Maybe riding a hot air balloon can be an alternative hehe I would like to marry a man like Mr. Fredickson. Even carrying the house on his shoulders (and well,with the help of the balloons) was beyond his capacity, because he loves ellie so much, he was determined to fulfill his promise to his wife.
I personally like the scene where his wife tells him to create his own adventure, even when it means letting go of the house where ellie and Mr. Fredickson lived as a married couple (including the memoirs and the things important to them). He watched his house flying out of reach and realized his adventure was to save Kevin, a rare bird whose life is in danger.
Of course Mr. Fredickson wouldn't have succeeded his adventure without the help of Russel, a very cute,chubby, and asian junior wilderness explorer. He was missing the assisting-the-elderly badge before he'd be promoted as a senior explorer. Now, how cool is that ? At that young age ? SRSLY? Mr. Fredickson tried to get rid of him but he was surprised to see the boy knocking on his door while the house was flying. He had no choice but to bring Russel along. oh wait, he's real! HahahahahahaOf course, Lets not forget the voice behind his character.
Jordan Nagai, who is as cute as the character he's dubbing. Watching UP would be something you wouldn't consider as a waste of time. You learn a lesson plus you get to see the very cute Russel everytime (:
Sorry I don't have the link of the full movie. BOO-HOO me. As always -.-
Love,
