Netflix Review: Up

Up
Synopsis: An elderly man and a boy scout take a trip to South America in a flying house.
Pros: Great animation. A great montage sequence near the beginning. Ed Asner.
Cons: Way too much suspension of disbelief required as the movie goes on.
Overview: I liked the first half of the movie and especially the 5 minute montage sequence about the protagonist's life. However, once they entered South America, or actually the talking dogs introduction, required too much suspension of disbelief. It is still a good film, but not Pixar's best.
3.5 out of 5
