Directed by Pete Docter with additional direction from Kemp Powers and written by Docter, Powers, and Mike Jones, Soul is the story of a middle school music teacher who gets the chance to play for a prestigious jazz band until he accidentally falls down a hole as he seeks to reunite his soul with his body. The film is an exploration of life and what it means of existence and to live as it’s told in a strange mixture of reality and surrealism. Featuring the voices of Jamie Foxx, Tina Fey, Graham Norton, Rachel House, Alice Braga, Richard Ayoade, Phylicia Rashad, Donnell Rawlings, Questlove, and Angela Bassett. Soul is a majestic and evocative film from Pete Docter and Kemp Powers.

The film revolves around a middle school music teacher trying to get back to his body after falling down a manhole where he ventures into a world where he meets a young soul that isn’t eager to go to Earth where he shows this young soul what it means to live. It’s a film with a unique premise as it plays into this man who is given the chance of a lifetime to play for a prestigious jazz band in New York City as it’s something he always dreamed of yet the excitement of passing the audition has him falling down this manhole. The film’s screenplay by Pete Docter, Kemp Powers, and Mike Jones do play into this long-held desire that Joe Gardner (Jamie Foxx) has in wanting to be a jazz pianist ever since he was a teenager but chooses to be a middle school teacher in order to pay the bills as he is reluctant to go full-time. A former student who is playing drums for the respected and revered jazz musician Dorothea Williams (Angela Bassett) would get Gardner to audition for her as he passes and then falls into a manhole.

That’s only the first few minutes of the film as the script plays more into the exploration of what it means to live as well as what defines a soul where Joe is supposed to go into the Great Beyond where those who have passed are meant to go but Joe refuses as he finds himself in the Great Before. The Great Before is a place where unborn souls are there to find personalities and everything else that would define them before they enter Earth as Joe is mistaken for an instructor who is given the task to mentor an unwilling soul named 22 (Tina Fey). 22 is a character who had been given many mentors including Abraham Lincoln, Muhammad Ali, Mother Teresa, and many others but none have been able to get through to her about what it means to live as Joe shows her some of the simple ideas including music as they’re aided by a strange mystic known as Moonwind (Graham Norton) to help her out as well as take her to the place of lost souls whom he rescues.

The direction of Pete Docter, with additional contributions by Kemp Powers who is credited as a co-director, does create these massive set pieces in a world that is based on reality that is New York City but also this strange reality that is the Great Beyond, the Great Before, and other worlds where lost souls are recovered. With the help of animation directors Jaime Landes Roe, Gini Cruz Santos, and Royce Wesley, the world that Joe encounters are presented in different styles as the look of New York City as well as some of the places Joe go to each have their own sense of style that has an air of realism but also some beauty thanks to the contributions of the film’s cinematographers Matt Aspbury and Ian Megibben who help create unique lighting schemes in the way rooms are lit in the day and night with production designer Steve Pilcher, along with art directors Paul Abadilla and Tim Evatt, and visual effects supervisor Michael Fong in the creation of the Great Before with its vibrant colors and the world of lost souls that is dark and colorless. The scenes in the Great Before feature characters in these counselors who are called Jerry as they’re presented in this traditional hand-drawn animation style that is unique but also has these offbeat personalities that adds to some of the surreal elements that Joe and 22 encounter.

Docter and Powers also create the subplot as it relates to an accountant named Terry (Rachel House) who always count on those who die and are set to the Great Beyond as she notices that the count is off as it relates to Joe not going to the Great Beyond. The film’s second act is about Joe showing 22 the ideas of living where 22 would experience things that add to the joys of life through simple pleasures and encounters. Docter and Powers provide these moments that definitely echo some of ideas of pure cinema as well as surrealism in its third act as it relates to 22’s journey in trying to find her spark that would allow her to go to Earth and live. Yet, it forces Joe to have some revelations about his own life and his own pursuits of being a jazz musician as he has to help 22 to not only find her own purpose in life but also in just living for the moment and enjoy it. Overall, Docter and Powers create a rich and rapturous film about a music school teacher trying to show a young soul the pleasures and meaning of life.

Editor Kevin Nolting does brilliant work with the editing as it play into some of the humor as well as some of the drama as there is a rhythm to the cutting in its presentation of the music but also in some of the surreal elements of the film. Sound editor Coya Elliott and sound designer Ren Klyce do amazing work in the sound in some of the sound effects that are created as well as the natural sounds of certain locations and how certain objects sound in the things 22 encounters. The film’s jazz music soundtrack by Jon Batiste is incredible in the way it plays into Joe’s life and sense of improvisation in how life works while the electronic music score by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross for scenes in the Great Beyond and the Great Before is probably the major highlight of the film with its mixture of ambient, throbbing electronics, and discordant industrial textures that adds to the mystical and suspenseful elements of those worlds while its music soundtrack also include pieces from Daveed Diggs, Cody ChestnuTT, Bob Dylan, a cover of the Impressions’ It’s All Right performed by Batiste, and jazz pieces from Walter Norris, Duke Pearson, Duke Ellington, and Dave Brubeck.

The casting by Natalie Lyon and Kevin Reher is superb as it feature voice appearances and cameos from Pixar regular John Ratzenberger as a subway passenger, Sakina Jeffrey as a doctor, Laura Mooney as a therapy cat owner, Cora Champommier as one of Joe’s students who gets lost in playing the trombone, Margo Hall and Rhodessa Jones as a couple of Joe’s mother’s co-workers, June Squibb as a soul that Joe meets who is about to enter the Great Beyond, Cody ChestnuTT as a subway performer, Daveed Diggs as a frenemy of Joe’s in Paul, Wes Studi, Fortune Feimester, and Zenobia Shroff as soul counselors named Jerry, and Donnell Rawlings as Joe’s barber Dez who has some unique views about life and what he could’ve done but is content with what he’s doing. Angela Bassett is fantastic as the revered jazz musician Dorothea Williams as a saxophonist/band leader who is hoping that Joe gives her what she wants while Questlove is excellent as Joe’s former student Curly who plays drums for Williams and gets Joe the chance to audition for her. Phylicia Rashad is brilliant as Joe’s mother Libba as a seamstress who wants Joe to accept the full-time teaching job and not go after his dream of being a musician knowing what his father had tried to do for years.

Alice Braga and Richard Ayoade are amazing as two soul counselors in the Great Before both called Jerry as Braga is more informative and witty while Ayoade is the funnier one. Rachel House is incredible as the soul counter Terry as an accountant who makes sure the count is precise on those who go to the Great Beyond as she becomes intent on finding Joe. Graham Norton is marvelous as Moonwind who works as a human being sign twirler by day yet is a soul who captures lost souls in the lost world and gets them back as Norton provides a comical and offbeat approach to his character who sails on a ship to the music of Bob Dylan. Tina Fey is phenomenal as 22 as a cynical soul who isn’t eager to go to Earth as she likes to mess with other souls though she reluctantly let Joe mentor her where she realizes that there are things she might want to experience. Finally, there’s Jamie Foxx in a sensational performance as Joe Gardner as a middle-school music teacher who dreams of being a jazz musician and play in a jazz band as he deals with being in a mystical world and to try and guide a young soul about the pleasures of life as he begins to question about aspects of his own life in this endearing voice performance.

Soul is an outstanding film from Pete Docter and Kemp Powers. Featuring a great ensemble voice cast, gorgeous visuals, engaging themes of existential and what makes life worth living, and an exhilarating music score from Jon Batiste, Trent Reznor, and Atticus Ross. It’s a film that isn’t just engaging and full of wit but it’s also a film that allows its audience to understand the ideas of life and what it means to live and enjoy it without trying to be heavy-handed nor be overly-intellectual. In the end, Soul is a magnificent film from Pete Docter and Kemp Powers.

Lava (short)/Inside Out

Directed by Pete Docter and Ronnie del Carmen and screenplay by Docter, Meg LaFauve, and Josh Cooley from a story Docter and del Carmen, Inside Out is the story about five figures representing different emotions who observe a young girl who copes with moving to a new city as they embark onto an adventure. The film explores not just a family dealing with a new move as it is largely told by emotional spirits who observe everything that is happening in these ongoing changes in life. Featuring the voices of Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, Bill Hader, Mindy Kaling, Lewis Black, Kyle MacLachlan, Diane Lane, and Kaitlyn Dias. Inside Out is a compelling yet evocative film from Pete Docter and Ronnie del Carmen.

Lava

Written and directed by James Ford McMurphy, Lava is a musical short film that revolves a volcano falling in love. It is a simple short story where a volcano is singing to find someone to love as he often sees two of everything while being unaware that there’s a volcano under the sea looking for him. It’s a visually-exhilarating and evocative short film that features the voices of Kuana Torres Kahele and Napua Greig as these volcanoes as they both sing the song continuously which is presented in a traditional Hawaiian presentation. The result isn’t just one of Pixar’s finest shorts but also a love story that manages to be so much more.

Inside Out

The film revolves around the five emotions inside the mind of a young girl as she copes with moving from Minnesota to San Francisco as things go wrong prompting two key emotional figures to retrieve some core memories that define this young girl. It’s a story that is about a young girl growing up and coping with changes in her life as she struggles to adapt to her new situation only to act out in ways she couldn’t understand. Most notably as her two main emotions in Joy (Amy Poehler) and Sadness (Phyllis Smith) struggle to retrieve core emotions from a world of long-term emotions where Disgust (Mindy Kaling), Fear (Bill Hader), and Anger (Lewis Black) are forced to take over where things go wrong. Even as they would try to do something to make her happy again but realize that all five emotions need each.

The film’s screenplay does start off with the birth of Riley (Kaitlyn Dias) and the emergence of Joy who would be the leader of controlling Riley’s emotions as she is later joined by Sadness, Disgust, Fear, and Anger. Joy would also make sure that Riley’s most important moment would emerge as they would represent core memories and special islands that represent her personality. When Riley is forced to move from Minnesota to San Francisco with her parents (Kyle MacLachlan and Diane Lane), things become complicated where Joy tries to maintain control but an incident where Sadness touches a core memory orb would trouble things as an attempt to discard it would force Joy and Sadness out of their headquarters and into the world where Riley’s long term memories are at. The script doesn’t just have elements of adventure but also drama and humor as there is a balance to the many things that occur in the film. Most notably as the five emotional figures are well-rounded characters who are just trying to manage a young girl’s emotional state.

The direction of Pete Docter and Ronnie del Carmen is quite vast in not just their approach to the world that Riley and her family is in but how it’s viewed from her emotional figures. It is presented with a richness in the 3D-computer animation style as it plays into not just the world that these characters are in but also what they need to do. Though much of what Riley experience is controlled by Joy, the sense of curiosity from Sadness would be the catalyst for what is to come. Most notably as it plays into the sense of change that Riley would encounter in San Francisco ranging from all sorts of things include veggie pizza, not having things at the home already, and not feeling the need to play hockey. It plays into not just a girl growing up but finding herself at odds with her surroundings as she becomes moody where Anger, Disgust, and Fear try to make her happy but a lot of comical hi-jinks ensue and more.

The direction also plays into some very strange moments where Joy and Sadness meet with an old imaginary friend of Riley in Bing Bong (Richard Kind) where they try to catch a train to the headquarters as the stop into a world that is literally abstract. It plays into things that these emotions aren’t able to comprehend as they’re growing along with Riley where Joy is forced to come to terms that she can’t control everything. What would happen wouldn’t just be moments that are very emotional but also some realization that all of these emotions have to be together help develop a person in its growth despite all of the growing pains this young girl would go through. Overall, Docter and del Carmen create a sprawling yet riveting film about a group of emotions watching the development of a young girl.

Editor Kevin Nolting does excellent work by going for something straightforward with some montages for the film‘s opening pre-credits sequence that plays into the life of young Riley. Production designer Ralph Eggleston and art director Bert Berry do amazing work with the look of the headquarters where the emotions do their job as well as the land outside of headquarters and the dark abyss in between. Sound designer Ren Klyce and sound editor Shannon Mills do fantastic work with the sound from the sound effects that occur in the world outside of headquarters as well as the places that Riley goes to. The film’s music by Michael Giacchino does brilliant work with the film’s music as it features an orchestral score that is very playful as well as some quirky elements that play into its humor and themes to play into its sense of despair.

The casting by Natalie Lyon and Kevin Reher is incredible as it features voice work from Pixar regular John Ratzenberger as a cloud, Bobby Moynihan and Paula Poundstone as a couple of forgetters who suck out fading long-term memories, Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea as a mind-worker cop, Frank Oz and Dave Goelz as a couple of security guards, Paula Pell in a dual role as a dream director and the mother’s anger, Josh Cooley as the fear manifestation in the form of a clown, Lori Alan as mother’s sadness, Pete Docter as father’s anger, Rashida Jones as a cool girl’s various voices of emotions, and Carlos Alazraqui in a dual voice role as father’s fear and an imaginary Brazilian helicopter pilot. Richard Kind is terrific as the voice of an old imaginary friend named Bing Bong who helps Joy and Sadness find their way back as he also hopes that Riley would remember him. Kyle MacLachlan and Diane Lane are superb as Riley’s parents who deal with Riley’s sudden moodiness as it relates to their new living situation and changes in their life. Kaitlyn Dias is amazing as the voice of Riley as an 11-year old girl who deals with growing pains and changes in her life as Dias brings a realist approach to anyone who has deal with growing pains in that age.

Lewis Black is brilliant as Anger as he represents someone that knows when to push buttons as he comes up with a plan that he thinks will get Riley to become happy. Bill Hader is hilarious as Fear as someone who is constantly scared as he always list things that should go wrong on a certain day. Mindy Kaling is excellent as Disgust as a manifestation who makes Riley say no to broccoli and other things while giving Riley things not to like. Phyllis Smith is phenomenal as Sadness where Smith brings a lot of emotional weight and curiosity to the role as it adds a balance to Riley’s emotional turmoil. Finally, there’s Amy Poehler in a remarkable voice performance as Joy as the upbeat head of emotions who tries to maintain some control unaware of how troubled Riley is in her growing pains forcing her to grow up a bit as it’s that great mix of humor and realism in Poehler’s voice.

Inside Out is a tremendous film from Pete Docter and Ronnie del Carmen as it is definitely one of Pixar’s finest films. It’s a film that doesn’t just explore the idea of growing pains but also one that is told through various emotions that try to cope with changing times and changing worlds. It’s also a film that manages to be so much in terms of bending genres as well as be something that kids and adults could relate to in terms of growing up and change. In the end, Inside Out is a magnificent film from Pete Docter, Ronnie del Carmen, and Pixar.

Up/Partly Cloudy (short)

Originally Written and Posted at Epinions.com on 5/30/09 w/ Additional Edits.

Since 1995, Pixar has been the animated studio that changed the face of cinema and animation itself. Led by co-founder John Lassetter, Pixar in its association with Disney helped introduce the world to 3-D computer animation for many years with its first feature film Toy Story. Eight films later which included such hits like Toy Story 2, A Bug's Life, Monster's Inc., Cars, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, and 2008's WALL-E. The studio continues to push the boundaries of animation with its team of directors including Pete Docter, Andrew Stanton, and Brad Bird. Since its founding in the mid-1980s, Pixar has continued to score massive critical acclaim and box office as in 2009. The studio released its 10th film by having it being the opening film at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival. For the studio, it was a huge achievement as it was the first animated film to open the festival with a simple story about an old man and a boy scout going on an adventure entitled Up.

Directed by Pete Docter, with additional directing by Bob Peterson, and screenplay by Bob Peterson with story credits from Ronnie del Carmen plus additional, un-credited work by Thomas McCarthy. Up tells the story of a widowed, retired 78-year old man whose house is about to be destroyed. To fulfill the wishes of his late wife, the man blows up millions of balloons for his house to be lifted up in the air unaware that he is taking an 8-year-old boy scout on an adventure to South America with help from a dog and a tropical bird.

Inspired by the story of Miguel de Cervantes' Man of La Mancha along with films like Werner Herzog's Fitzcarraldo and Roland Joffe's The Mission. The film is a simple adventure tale filled with the same kind of humor and brilliant animation that Pixar is famous for. Even as the film pushes the boundary of 3D technology without any kind of gimmicks. Along with the accompanying short film Party Cloudy by Peter Sohn about a lonely cloud and a stork. Up features the voices of Edward Asner, Jordan Nagai, Bob Peterson, Ellie Docter, Delroy Lindo, Pixar regular John Ratzenberger, and Christopher Plummer. Up is a charming, adventurous film from Pete Docter and company.

Partly Cloudy

Written and directed by Peter Sohn. The short film tells the story of a gray cloud trying to fit in with other clouds by creating things. While the clouds create babies, puppies, and kittens with lots of things for storks. One stork has to work with the gray cloud who creates baby gators, rams, and other wild creatures that the stork is forced to endure. Feeling sad that he couldn't create something cute, he is afraid that he will be rejected.

The short has a nice little plot that is simple while it's mostly silent with its array of light humor and sentimentality in terms of its cloud. Overall, it's a wonderful, accompanying short film for the big feature film Up.

Up

A young boy named Carl Fredricksen (Jeremy Leary) watches a newsreel about the famed explorer Charles Muntz (Christopher Plummer) whose attempt to discover Paradise Falls in South America became a disaster due to false claims over a mysterious skeletal creature he found. Carl later meets a young girl named Ellie (Ellie Docter) who is an adventurous girl as they become friends and eventually a couple. Many years later, the 78-year old Carl (Edward Asner) is a retired widow whose home is in danger of being destroyed by a construction site. After an incident with a construction worker, Carl is forced to go to a retirement home. Instead, he decides to fulfill Ellie's dream of going to Paradise Falls by blowing up a million balloons for his house to fly away from the city. Carl seems relieved until he realized he had taken a passenger in a young Wilderness Explorer named Russell (Jordan Nagai).

Carl reluctantly takes Russell who is hoping to get one last merit badge to become a Senior Explorer. Upon their destination to South America, they reach the ravine where Paradise Falls is though it's at the other side of that ravine. Having to drag the house, they encounter a large, colorful bird that Russell names Kevin as they also meet a dog named Dug (Bob Peterson) who has a voicebox on his neck to talk. Realizing that Kevin is trying to reach out to other birds of its species, Carl and Russell meet up with other dogs including Alpha (Bob Peterson), Beta (Delroy Lindo), and Gamma (Jerome Ranft) as they're the owners of the legendary Charles Muntz. Carl is enamored by Muntz who is trying to find the bird that is revealed to be Kevin as Muntz goes after the bird.

With Carl more concerned about his house as he finally reaches his destination, Russell decides to save Kevin as Carl reluctantly takes part with help from Dug. With Muntz holding Kevin at his dirigible, Carl and Muntz battle while Russell tries to save the bird with help from Dug and other dogs.

The film is essentially an adventure tale about an old man wanting to fulfill the wishes of his late wife. Along the way, he encounters characters and creatures that would shape his journey similar to the adventures of Don Quixote. While the story and tale is simple, it's a film that is filled with mesmerizing images and montages with a story that is definitely enchanting. Even with the characters that surround the film as Carl Fredricksen is a combination of the crankiness of Walter Matthau, the look of Spencer Tracy, and the determination of Don Quixote. For his Sancho Panza, there's Russell. A young Asian-American boy who serves as the eternal optimist who is hoping to get a great experience while helping Carl in his hopes to become a Senior Explorer. Yet, there's something about Russell that is also sad since he's a boy who doesn't see his father very much where Carl becomes this reluctant father figure of sorts.

The film's antagonist is Charles Muntz, a man who is part Charles Lindbergh, part Howard Hughes, and also a bit like the title character of Werner Herzog's 1982 classic film Fitzcarraldo. Muntz is a man obsessed with finding the bird that is named Kevin in hopes to restore his credibility as an explorer. Instead, he becomes insane and heartless as the man whom Carl idolized has now become a mad recluse surrounded by dogs with electronic collars that has different voices. The leading dog of that group is Alpha whose collar is often malfunctioned where his voice ends up have him talking like a chipmunk. Whereas Alpha is a mean, bossy dog, there's Dug who is the exact opposite as he hopes to be loved by someone like Carl who reluctantly takes him as part of his adventure.

The screenplay is wonderfully structured with some great dialogue and character development. Though the story does have a sense of predictability, it's adventure and development in character makes the story a whole, worthwhile event to be enamored by. All of this is helped by Pete Docter's direction. Docter's approach to the story has this great opening sequence of young Carl meeting Ellie as a kid which leads to this incredible montage of them growing up into adults and such. That sequence of montages alone features no dialogue at all as it's accompanied by music. Then comes the main story as it is filled with a great sense of adventure.

A lot of the scenes in South America were based on locations in Venezuelan mountains and some parts of Brazil. The rugged look of the jungles along with its blistering colors and grand scope is really entrancing to watch. Yet, several scenes which involves Russell and Carl dragging the house does reference the film Fitzcarraldo, which was about a man trying to drag a steamboat ship on top of a mountain. The direction and action sequences definitely keep the adrenaline going with a mix of broad, light-hearted humor and sweeping melodrama in relation to Carl's feelings over Ellie which doesn't go into overly sentimental territory. What Pete Docter and co-director Bob Peterson does create is a spectacular, enjoyable film that is adventurous and fun to watch.

The look of the film from its gorgeous colorful cinematography in the lighting shades of the house and the look of the jungle is brilliant. Even the art direction and location detail by production designer Ricky Nievara with a team of art directors is splendid in the look of Carl's house as well as the rugged locations of the Paradise Falls ravine with an array of rocks coming from the tepui mountains of Venezuela. The sound work is brilliant from the sounds of the water falls, creatures, and storms is great. The music of Michael Giacchino, a regular Pixar collaborator, is splendid with its mix of old-time, early 20th Century rag time music to the sweeping arrangements in the adventure scenes as it's some excellent work from Giacchino.

The voice cast is phenomenal with director Pete Docter playing the Wilderness Explorers leader and his daughter Ellie playing the role of the young Ellie with great enthusiasm and energy. Other notable small voice roles as the dogs are Delroy Lindo and Jerome Ranft as the comical lieutenants of Alpha's crew who often laughs at his squeaky voice. Jeremy Leary is very good as the young Carl with his quiet personality and love for Charles Muntz. Co-director and screenwriter Bob Peterson does excellent work in providing some great humor as the voice of Alpha while doing something mean while being normal and fun as Dug. Pixar regular John Ratzenberger is excellent in a small role as a construction worker who tries to get Carl out of his house as he provides a nice dose of humor to the film.

Christopher Plummer is great as Charles Muntz in voicing the mad personality who is on the brink of insanity as Plummer provides the great vocal work for the film's antagonist. Jordan Nagai is wonderful as the voice of Russell with an exuberance and liveliness that is an 8-year old along with a dose of realism as he faces new challenges and reality. Nagai's voice is definitely the standout as he voices the sheer innocence of a young boy. Finally, there's Edward Asner in one of his best roles yet as the voice of Carl Fredricksen. Asner provides the great mix of bitterness and desire of a man trying to deal with his wife's death while fulfilling a sense of adventure that he needed. It's definitely a role that is lively but also filled with real life regrets and frustrations of a man just trying to fulfill some last wishes as Asner brings some life into the heroic role of Carl Fredricksen.

Up is a tremendous film from Pete Docter. With a great cast of actors providing voices along with some amazing visuals and scenery that lives up to Pixar's unique standards. Fans of the Pixar films will no doubt rank this as one of its finest while it crosses many barriers from an adventure film that kids will enjoy to the fully realized character development that adults and art house fans can enjoy. In the end, Up is a lively film that raises spirits while proving that Pixar is still the animation studio that keeps on putting great stories for everyone to enjoy.
