Gorgeous Disney/Pixar picture about cranky old widower Asner traveling to the wilds of South America via thousands of balloons tied to his house in order to fulfill his dream, only to accidentally take annoying young Wilderness Explorer Nagai with him. When they land, they're welcomed by "talking" dogs and a colorful flightless bird named Kevin, as well as an unexpected tie to the past. Unfortunately, like a lot of movies that have a subtle perfection in the first and second act, there is for some reason an unnecessary need to overcompensate with a heavy-handed climatic third act. Still, just too wonderful not to love.
