Summary: My two boys love this movie
Review: You don't need me to review the movie. What's more important is that my sons (ages 2 and 5) love Monsters, Inc. There's controlled chaos, monsters, and bit of peril and comedy. The kids watch this and they laugh and giggle. Personally, I would have enjoyed more quiet moments in the film. I find it a bit too loud and sometimes exhausting to watch. But then, I could say the same about watching my kids.

Summary: Monsters!? - Not!
Review: Great Movie! Only gave it 4 stars because I had to explain to my girls ages 4 & 3 a few times that there are no such things as monsters! They weren't scared of them, since the movie teaches them that the monsters are really cute, cuddly, funny, furry things!- but they wanted to know if we had some in our closets!It's a story about Monsters who come out of closets to get you to scream-because screams are what their world is powered by. The monsters think that KIDS are scarry! One kid gets into the monster side of the world and that's where this story takes off. They have to get her back to her world - but in the mean time they fall in love with this kid.
Worth your time & money! Disney did it again!!

Summary: Outstanding Animation & Great Fun
Review: Disney and Pixar have again teamed up to create an outstanding computer-animated film. I must admit that the trailers and hype had me skeptical, but when I saw the film in theaters, I changed my mind--this is a great film, particularly for kids (though adults can enjoy it, too!)The premise: the monsters under your bed, in your closet, etc. are REAL, and their world connects to ours through the closet doors. Those monsters don't really want to eat young, terrified kids; it's just the fear they're after as an eco-friendly power source. That's where our main charcters come in, as the best scarer, Sulley, and his set-up man, Mike (the two voiced to great effect by John Goodman and Billy Crystal) find one young girl unafraid of the cute and furry Sulley who follows him back to the the monster's land though her closet door. The neat plot device is that monsters are in fact terrified of kids, believing contact with them deadly. Thus the first half or so of the film is devoted to Mike and Sulley's antics of trying desperately to hide and return the kid to her home, dressing her up in a monster costume and lugging her all about town as they try to locate the door leading back to her bedroom all the while avoiding the men-in-black-esque "decontamination" teams. Adults and children alike will enjoy the their antics and the saccharinely sweet kid's charm. The second half of the film does flag off a bit from the first as Sulley and Mike discover a nefarious plot to kidnap and harness the fear of children through a mechanical monstrosity reminiscent of the infamous tentacle monsters of anime. The chase scenes that ensue are at times repetitive and predictable and lack much of the charm of the first half of the movie (though not the slapstick schitck), but not a child will notice as they cheer on Sulley and Mike. Overall, this is one of the more original and cuter films to come out of Disney in a long time.

Summary: All-around great family fun
Review: "Monsters Inc." is a fantastic movie for the whole family to see. Kids can enjoy the "surface story" (monsters try to send little girl, Boo, back to her world after she escapes from the human world, all while avoiding one of the few truly evil monsters), while adults can enjoy the truly deep relationship the main characters have with Boo. All in all, a real treat.

Summary: This was rated G?
Review: I enjoyed the movie as an adult, but why does Disney have to put in so much violence into their movies these days? Do they really feel that they have to scare the 3-4-5 year old kids. I was really disturbed when they clamped the 3 year old girl into a chair and were pushing a machine upto the childs mouth to suck the screams out of her. I looked at my daughter (who was 5) and she was terrified. There was nothing humorous in the violence (it was not done tongue in cheek unlike the Bugs Bunny cartoons). This violence was intended to be hurtful and real. I am afraid that Disney needs to build the murderous plots into their movies. Let's briefly look at the list:
1. Lion King - Uncle murders father
2. Beauty and the Beast - Gaston stabs beast with knife.
3. Monster's Inc. - Attempted murder, kidnapping
4. Hunchback of Notre Dame - Almost drops baby into well...
5. Lilo and Stitch - Aliens try to kill Stitch
6. Tarzan - Don't they kill the mother Gorilla and try to kill Tarzan? Should these be rated G? I am a big fan of the stuff done in the 60's and 70's. A lot of it was done with a wink and a nod and a sense of fun.
1. Winnie the Pooh
2. Mary Poppins
3. The computer who wore tennis shoes (The whole Dexter Riley series with Kurt Russel)
4. Herbie the Love Bug
5. Snowball Express
6. Most of the Wonderful World of Disney I have to admit that even during this time Disney did a few movies which had murder in them (but not everyone). I think the writers at Disney could be more creative and write a good story without relying on lame murder themes. I think Walt would agree. These are kids. PS: I loved the Matrix, but I don't want my kids to watch it.

Summary: Darling Movie
Review: Absolutely a joyous movie for both kids and adults to watch; and not one scene that would embarrass kids if they watched it with their folks. That's a rarity for Hollywood. This movie was funny, especially the way the monsters perceived humans. The little girl was just adorable. A great movie to add to your children's movie collection.
