Cars Movie Review

08:18 am on Jun 12th 2006

I took the family to Cars on Saturday and it will be is another hit for Pixar. The movie is 1 hour and 57 minutes. The actual storyline is fairly common: a self absorbed star gets shown the virtues of caring about others and reforms by the end of the movie – timeless and consistently good. But add that storyline to the Pixar magic – especially Pixar magic directed by John Lasseter himself – and you have a block buster.

All the characters were great with the exception of Bonnie Hunt – the voice of Sally the Porche. She did a fabulous job there and I have no complaints with her voice acting. Its basically the simple fact that I knew who was doing the voice and I couldn’t picture her as a young sexy actresses to play opposite of Owen Wilson. The last role I knew her from is the mom from cheaper by the dozen.

I can’t wait to see it again. I can’t remember a Pixar movie that I saw in the theater that didn’t have me jazzed when I was leaving. This is no exception. Its too bad we will have to wait so long before it is out on DVD.

This meant that the only seats available were in the first two rows which hurts the necks and can make you nauseous. [...]
