Up (2009) Who would have thought a kids' movie featuring a 78-year-old balloon salesman would be such a hit with the younger set? Although Up has plenty of adult appeal — and can get pretty emotional at times — characters like Russell, Kevin, and Dug bring the comic relief hard and leave kids in fits of giggles they can't control. Plus, it's about a house floating thanks to hundreds of balloons, aka a kid's dream. Image Source: Everett Collection
