Amazon.co.uk Review It’s little secret that Blu-rays of Pixar films are among the finest demo material you can lay your hands on for a half-decent home cinema set-up. But perhaps Up is the most impressive of all. The film itself is outstanding, and only the second to snare a Best Picture nomination at the Academy Awards. Telling the story of 78-year old Carl Fredericksen as he embarks, along with boy scout Russell, on a journey he promised his late wife he’d always take, it’s a stunning piece of work. Most memorable is one of the most moving sequences ever committed to animation, which hits you in the film’s first ten minutes, but there’s still plenty to keep you enthralled after that. One of the most striking features of Up is just how visually arresting it is. The visuals crackle with exceptional levels of detail here, with a broad palette of colours shining through on the stunning 1080p video transfer. This really is reference-quality work, and just from a home cinema demonstration point of view, Up is a flat-out must buy. But it’s more than that. It’s also one of the most ambitious, at-times original and boldest films to come out of Hollywood in recent times. When most other animation studios are content to stuff their films with cute animals and star names, Pixar continues to take risks, and while Up isn’t a perfect ride, it’s not too far off. A wonderful film, brilliantly transferred to Blu-ray. --Simon Brew

Pixar's 'Up' Review, 2010-09-04 As usual Amazon got this DVD to me in record time and I found the price very competitive. As for the film, well its from the Pixar 'Stable' and they produce the very best in entertainment DVD's. The film is one of the very best. It's ideal for kids and adults alike, very enjoyable, sad at times but has a grounded theme and good ending. I recommend to all. Its a great film.
Up, DVD, 2010-09-06 Great film, my husband and I watched it and found it funny and poignant. The rest of the family are now queing up to see it. Irene
Essential viewing, 2010-08-25 This is equally appropriate for children and grown up children! As one reviewer said the first ten minutes are life enhancing. The story is witty and clever with wonderful, detailed animation. All human life is represented here. My (grownup) brother and I were alternately tickled and moved throughout. We were bereft when it came to an end.
Excellent price for Bluray combi, 2010-08-27 Great animation, very very impressive. I was very impressed with the movement of everything, the characters, the balloons etc. The story is moving, especially at the start when you go over the story of the old man's history and, although I didn't find the movie hilariously funny (I guess it isn't supposed to be, it's much more sentimental and moving) there are funny moments, especially the dogs. Very good film, very well produced and a delight to watch.
Brill, 2010-09-07 Has a very moving start to the film but then transcends into a heart warming fun loving film. The colours are a delight to behold, the story line is fun & true to the film.
A must for all ages
