From the revolutionary minds of Pixar Animation Studios and the acclaimed director of MONSTERS, INC. comes a hilarious uplifting adventure where the sky is no longer the limit.
Carl Fredicksen, a retired balloon salesman, is part rascal, part dreamer who is ready for his last chance at high-flying excitement. Tying thousands of balloons to his house, Carl sets off to the lost world of his childhood dreams. Unbeknownst to Carl, Russell, an overeager 8-year old Wildnerness Explorer who has never ventured beyond his backyard, is in the wrong place at the wrong time — Carl’s front porch! The world’s most unlikely duo reach new heights and meets fantastic friends like Dug, a dog with a special collar that allows him to speak, and Kevin, the rare 13-foot tall flightless bird. Stuck together in the wilds of the jungle, Carl realizes that sometimes life’s biggest adventures aren’t the ones you set out for.
UP flies high with a pristine picture, theater-quality sound and hours of never-before-seen bonus features available only on Blu-ray™ Hi-Def. It’s an adventure that will send your spirits soaring!

I think it would be cool to fly all over the world. They say we couldn’t visit the whole world even in a lifetime, but if we could fly our house there, I’m sure we could!!
I would like to visit Paris. I’ve been dreaming of going there since I was little. Something about that place seems so cool. It would be even cooler to travel in my own house!
I would love to win this movie! Thanks reviewstl!
I would want to fly to Australia because I have never been there, and not going any time soon!
I would love to fly anywhere where the sun shines most of the time and the cool breeze from the ocean is always blowing sweetly in your face. I would love that and love to win the movie. Thanks so much,
I would like to go somewhere tropical. Of course it would be on the beach. I will have my house after all to stay in. I’ve always thought it would be nice to have a place on the beach! This would make it possible.
I think I would prolly go to Ireland. Or any soccer game in Europe
back home to ireland!

Oktoberfest in Germany!!!
I would like to fly my house to Sedona AZ.
I’d really like to go back to Kansas now, can Toto come too?
I’d fly to Australia. Traveling in my own house wouldn’t make the long trip so bad.
I would love to live in Greece in my own home near the sea and some of the most famous structures ever designed. The only downside to moving there is they do not have Steak-n-Shake.
I would float to Vegas. I think a mobile home flying by balloons would fit right in.
I would love to take my house to Australia. Airline tickets to there are too expensive.
Egypt – I’ve always wanted to see the pyramids in person.
if i could fly my house there i’d want to go everywhere!
I don’t know if I could fly my house anywhere — I live in a loft, and I’m pretty sure that the other people in my building would be ticked if I airlifted the structure to Paris. :/
Never-never-land. No, not that one, the other one…
We would love to see the wild animals of Africa. Carly, my 5 year old, loved the movie and totally loves watching animals anywhere.
(DVD please)
I would love to see Australia and to take my daughter to see all the native animals there.
She loved the movie and loves the outdoors and all animals.
I would love to go to Europe Africa

Oahu so I could let my inner Lost nerd out to play.
Up Up Up Up Up
