Not sure where you have seen a lot of mixed reviews for this one:
Rotten Tomatoes: 97%
Metacritic: 88

The general consensus is that, yes, it is good....

My opinion is that it is my favorite Pixar movie to date. This movie totally blindsided me. I did not expect to enjoy it walking into the theater.

The first 10-15 min of the movie is the most touching I have ever watched in an animated movie. Pixar knows how to hit the heart.

surprised at no 3D version listed. Granted the 3D effects in the film were subtle and not overbearing, but surprised non the less

we will see a 3D version down the road when the home technology catches up...Pixar does not want to release the old school 3D version..

This was one of the funniest, most beautifully shot, intensely moving films I have seen in years. Definitely not what I was expecting, but it's going to go in some sort of favorites list. two thumbs up!

I agree 100% Just brilliant film making, love that that particular section was done dialogue free as well.

Yeah, I too 100% agree. I was in tears by the end of that. I was just thinking, being a film major and hopeful future film director, how the fuck do I make a full film top something like this? It makes me happy to be in film and also childishly jealous of the talent Pixar has. It was soooo powerful just seeing a couple's history like that. Made me love and miss Mr. F's wife a lot. Of course it only hurt more when he would mention her and with the photo.

Wait, so where have you found bad reviews?


Deluxe DVD for me. Even if I did own a BD player, I don't really see any must-have features on the BD version.

so does the 4-disc Blu-ray contain the Special Edition SDVD with the commentary and the docu (that would be in the 2-disc Up! SE) and not just the 1-disc SDVD? (so 2 Blu-ray, 1 SE SDVD, 1 digital copy)

it's most likely the 1 DVD version.

Although "Bolt" BD+DVD came with the Deluxe edition DVD, not the single disc barebones edition, so there might be a possibility.

Has anyone picked this up yet?

Is the packaging as bad as the Wall-E DVDs?

the 2-disc SDVD was normal non-eco friendly keepcase with snap closures and slipcase. or course it also fits nicely in the BB SteelBook™.

Re: Pixar's "Up" (11/10/09)
 
And yet another useless 'exact copy of the case art' slipcover. :p

2-disk did seema bit bare-boned though. Two shorts, commentary,travelogue and alternate villain endings. Guess BR really did get all the goodies this time. A shame really as I really liked what they did with the Wall-E 3-disker.

I got the steelbook release by best buy! I love it :)
