It's no secret to my friends that I loved Wall-e, and thought it was the best Pixar movie made, both technically and story-wise. That said, I'm not so sure that UP didn't meet or even beat Wall-E in the story department. The art style in UP is much softer, with the effect being used wisely throughout the entire movie. There were a number of parts in the story that are extremely emotional, to the point that I was fighting back tears and holding my wife's hand a little bit harder. The voice acting is very good as always. I highly recommend any that is Pixar fan see this movie, and anyone who loves a good story should as well.
