Up - Edward Asner and Jordan Nagai

Up – The voices of Edward Asner and Jordan Nagai. This is a story about an elderly man named Carl played by Ed Asner and boy named Russell played by Jordan Nagai who goes on a wild ride in Carl’s house while it travels through the air. Carl now living alone is being forced to move into a retirement home because a construction crew wants to tear down the home that he and his wife have lived in for years. Carl comes up with a great plan to keep his home by using helium balloons to lift his house up and away from his town to avoid the move.

Russell who just happened to be hiding on Carl’s porch at the time accidentally ends up coming along for the adventure, and what an adventure they have. After a storm throws them around for a while they end up on a plateau near a place called Paradise Falls. There Russell befriends a bird he names Kevin. From here they encounter a mean Mr. Muntz played by Christopher Plummer and his vicious dogs.

If you want to know more you’re going to have to rent the DVD. This is a very cute story and I think the family would enjoy watching it together.

Here are the few mistakes I found.

I guess the most obvious mistake would be that the number on the house that keeps changing from the number four to the number three throughout the movie.

When the house is flying over a traffic intersection if you look closely at the traffic lights below the green, yellow and red lights are facing towards the intersection and not towards the cars.

When young Carl is taken to the hospital after breaking his arm the ambulance has a modern day siren attached instead of what would have been used for the times.

When Carl releases the balloons from the chimney they are already filled with helium. If they had already been filled the house should have left the ground much sooner.

When the house is going up into the air you can’t see anyone on the porch. Shortly their after you see Russell hiding in the porches right corner.

Carl uses a sail to control and maneuver the house. If I am correct sails will not work on a house using balloons.

Cute movie that I recommend to the family. I can’t wait to see it again.
