This crowd-pleasing, pretty animated film is a Disney release of a Pixar production. Carl (voice of Ed Asner) is a grumpy 78-year-old balloon seller grieving over the death of his wife. He ties thousands of balloons to his house, which takes flight and transports him to a scenic place in South America. A pudgy kid named Russell (voice of Jordan Nagai) happens to get carried along with Carl, and the old man and the boy have a series of adventures. They encounter a giant plumed bird, talking dogs and an eccentric explorer voiced by Christopher Plummer.
