FILM: Up 3D (dir: Pete Docter and Bob Peterson, 2009)


"Thanks for the adventure..."

Simply beautiful from start to finish: the sumptuous digital images, glorious use of 3D, wonderful structure, another cracking lyrical score by Michael Giacchino...Up ranks as one of Pixar's very best movies, and it shows a range of tone and emotional resonace that very few live-action movies could hope to achieve. It's not just the craftsmanship on display that makes Pixar so successful - they make movies with genuine love of the form, and it has never been more evident than in this movie.
