The Daily Mail - Chris Tookey | Screenrush Barometer:  |

'in some ways, the ultimate adventure, even if the kid is Asian-American. It's Gran Torino with balloons.'
|
|
The Independent - Anthony Quinn | Screenrush Barometer: |

'This rollercoaster ride will leave everyone on an up, even those of us who've crested the apex and now, like Carl, see life's curve heading all the way down.' |

|
New Yorker - David Denby | Screenrush Barometer: |
|
'the co-directors, Pete Docter and Bob Peterson, who also wrote the screenplay, pay affectionate tribute to daydreaming as a noble and necessary human activity. In dreams begin responsibilities, and in dreams begin movies, too.' |

The Daily Telegraph - Sukhdev Sandhu | Screenrush Barometer: |
|
At Cannes: 'It's utterly delightful,' |
|
Hollywood Reporter - Michael Rechtshaffen | Screenrush Barometer: |

|
Little White Lies - Limara Salt | Screenrush Barometer: |

'Pixar may have several sequels in the pipeline but Up is yet another original, boundary pushing story. It's not quite Nemo, but it will have you shouting ?Squirrel!' at every opportunity.' |
|
The Sunday Times - Cosmo Landesman | Screenrush Barometer: |
|
'about as uplifting as half a bra. Still, it's a hugely enjoyable work, whose care, craftsmanship and creative courage are rarely found in mainstream films ? animated or otherwise.' |
