Up for adventure

Friday, Michelle and I went to see Disney/Pixar's latest movie "Up".  I had heard that it was a good movie, so I was excited to see it.

I absolutely loved little Ellie.  She was adorable with her crazy hair and missing tooth.  Her little lisp was totally endearing.

Doug the dog was another favorite of mine.  I thought the animators did a great job with him. He was so goofy and lovable.  I love how they captured his A.D.D.  ("Squirrel!   Hey, there.")

I thought that the ending was great.  All people long to feel loved and needed.  I thought it was great that the old guy had found a new lease on life hanging out with chunky little Russell who needed a strong male role model in his life.

At one point during the movie, there's a bad storm.  As the scene was fading, a little kid in the audience yelled, "What the heck?!?"  It was hilarious.   Kids make me laugh.

Over all, a thumbs up from me.  Go see "Up".

We were going to go and see this this weekend too but the Bronco event took way longer than we had anticipated. I am looking forward to catching a good flick with the boys!
