The Tao of "UP" or how a movie couldn't be anymore near Perfect

Dare I say it: "UP" is a perfect movie. Or at least as near perfect a movie can get: why one may ask is "UP" such a perfect movie well to put simply: it touches all the bases that one could ask for. Unless you have been living like a hermit in a cave for the past 10 years or so you would know when it comes to animation there is only one Buddha on a mountain top: PIXAR. After wowing audiences with "WALL-E" last year this year Pixar gives us "UP" that is a love story, an action/ adventure tale, a Buddy comedy, and a tearjerker all rolled into one creating an unforgettable movie experience. The film follows 70-something-year-old Carl Fredrickson a Balloon salesman who following the death of his wife decides to live out their dream of the South American adventure by attaching Balloons to his house and flying to South America, the only problem is an eager boy scout is along for the ride as well and so as the film states: "The Spirit of Adventure Begins." The fact that this movie really does have something for everyone is what makes this more than a movie, it elevates it to an experience, the way "The Dark Knight" elevated the comic book genre. "Up" explores the many themes of life that we face: life, death, love, family, adolescence, friendship, and that everlasting eternal search for adventure. I will be the first one to say "Up" is one of the best pictures to come out in a long time, and that is saying something. I mean if you didn't near cry in the beginning of the movie: You have no soul. That's my story and I am sticking to it.
