I don’t know about you but when I think of Pixar’s “classics” rarely is Cars the first to come to mind. The Toy Story(s) perhaps, Monsters Inc. maybe, even Finding Nemo for those so inclined and yet it took a under-whelming sequel followed by a revisit to the DVD I thought I knew well to realize that the first Cars is the epitome of all that Pixar has come to mean to modern animation. In the event that you’ve been living in a cave these past six … more

Cars was the 7th feature film created by Pixar studios and it kept up the trend of excellent Pixar productions. Managing to win Pixar its 3rd consecutive best Animated Feature Academy award, there was no denying how good this film was. The story is cliché but the concept is still as fresh as Toy Story was back in the day. Its colourful and detailed environments, cars and sequences are put together brilliantly. Pixar makes its movies with this confidence in their own abilities. They seem to never … more

Pros: Amusing story line, solid animation. Great soundtrack with Sheryl Crow singing the song "Real Gone" Cons: Can't wait to see Cars II The Bottom Line: A solid family film. Funny yet a movie with a heart about discovering real values such as love and friendship. Plot Details: This opinion reveals minor details about the movie''s plot. My son is two and he loves cars. We received this DVD as a gift and currently we have watched … more

My son and I watched Cars on the big screen and I LOVED it! The songs were perfect--especially Real Gone and Life is a Highway. I've just watched the movie again, twice, on DVD. Unfortunately, my 25 inch TV screen doesn't do this movie justice! (It's one of those movies that pack a wallop when watched on the big screen...) The realism achieved in this movie is amazing, especially with Lightning's shiny red paint job and the "fumes" rising from the drag … more

'Cars' relies on such a beautiful personification, we forget the characters are really cars. The whole human world has been transfigured, as "Braking News" comes on television, and cars watch their fellow heroes in Nascar-type races in the stands. Playfully, we enter into the world of "Lightning McQueen" (Owen Wilson) who is trying to win his first "Piston Cup". He is full of himself and not just engine oil, so he lazily creates a three-way tie with two other prima dona cars. The tie-breaker takes … more

Criticism of this movie is a mystery to me. My kids has so far place this movie on there top ten mini lists. I have yet to see a bad Pixar film (even "A Bug's Life" is still entertaining, for kids anyway) and the only reason that I can think of is how difficult it is to follow a film of such real quality like "The Incredibles". I'm honestly struggling to think of a fault with this film which is bright, colourful, noisy and funny - perfect for the younger members of your family. But there is also … more

In Pixar's CARS, directed by TOY STORY director John Lasseter, the world is populated entirely by - you guessed it - cars. So it's only natural that the biggest event in the entire car world is the Piston Cup, the world's most popular race (inspired by the ever-popular NASCAR racing). This year, the public's rooting for Lightning McQueen (voiced by Owen Wilson), an immensely-talented albeit egotistic rookie. While traveling to California to prepare for the Piston Cup, Lightning's driver, Mack (John … more
