The montage of Carl and Ellie early on in the film is one of the most masterful animated sequences I've seen. Yet another tremendous gem from Pixar. The Giacchino score is terrific. Sadly, it seems to be only available as an iTunes download. That seems very odd for a film as high-profile as this one. Just got back from this a couple of hours ago… wow, what a truly lovely movie.

I know that's sad, and even though I've yet to catch up on the ones I've missed on DVD, I was enthralled with this story from beginning to end. It's funny, moving, brilliantly animated and never, not once, does it cheapen itself with toilet humor. (After THE HANGOVER, I've had my fill of that.). But what I loved the most is that this was thoroughly original; I didn't predict one second of the plot and after awhile gave up and just surrendered to the awe-inspiring visuals and thrilling adventure. Make that another 11/10 rating by me. Chris :) I have a confession to make: this is the first Pixar animated I’ve seen in a theater since TOY STORY 2.
