I'm planning on taking my three older kids to see it this weekend. We all enjoyed Wall-E a lot, so I think they'll like this one as well.

And I'm also going to see "Drag Me to Hell" (without the kiddos, of course) sometime this weekend.

To summarize, I will be experiencing a wide array of the vertical plane between now and Sunday!!! :lol:

I took my kids. It was really good, but maybe a tick below Wall-E. Just like Dalen, it brought a tear to my eye once or twice. Definitely among Pixar's best.

I actually went to the cinema this weekend -- I won't even tell you how it's been since I've last gone. Up was my reason for going and I absolutely loved it!! Though, I thought it was a bit 'dark' for little kids during the fight scene with Muntz and the other characters.

The wife wants me to take her to this. We watched Wall-E last night. It was pretty good for a children's movie that had a message bent and was very impressed with its own cleverness.

Saw Up today.

It was great. I didn't find it as funny as a lot of people seemed to, but I really enjoyed it.

Pixar has truly had an amazing run of movies. The last 3, including this one, are just flat-out great movies, not just good animated movies or good kids' movies.

Thought this was great. I feel like, with a couple of tweaks, they could have ended it after the first 15 or so minutes and it would have been just as great.

Enjoyed it thoroughly. If you have a soul and any sort of connection with humanity, I'd suggest watching it. So, Radcliffe and Rodney, don't bother. :)

(possible spoilers alert, for those who care about such things)

Finally saw this tonight and loved it. I mean... I was crying after the first 10 or 15 minutes, which is impressive. Great pacing, great characters, fun locales. Nice to see a bad guy actually DIE for once...! Despite the crying (which happened more than once), the movie was funny.

Oh, and the short before the movie? GREAT. Not as laugh-out-loud awesome as the one before WallE... but fun nonetheless.
