Summary: Very cute, very funny...
Review: This is a really great movie, probably the greatest cartoon movie I've seen in a while, after Toy Story 1 and 2.
I love it!!!
The voice of "boo" is just very cute. I like the effects of the faces of the monster "Sully" and the one eyed monster, "Mike."
The effects are also very advanced. You can see how "Sully's" furr moves when he walks, and the expressions on his face.
This is a great movie, and shouldn't be missing in your movie collection. I highly recommend it.

Summary: The Best Animated Film since Toy Story 2
Review: 2001 was a banner year for Computer Animated film. "Final Fantasy", "Shrek", "Monster's Inc." and "Jimmy Nuetron" made the year a feast for the eyes. But where "Final Fantasy" was all looks and no story, and "Shrek" was shallow fluff that will be forgotten in a year, "Monsters Inc" Continues Pixars string of success going back to the original "Toy Story"

The story itself is a great invention. Monsters are real, and live in their own little world, needing the sceams of young children to power it. A clever premise that plays off the Monster in the Closet stories from our younger days. John Goodman voices Sully, the top scarer at Monsters Inc, the company that bridges the gap between the human and monster world and collects the screams that power Monsteropolis. Billy Crystal, doing his best work in ages, voices the films mail comic relief, Sully's partner and best friend, the one-eyed, self-involved Mike Wazowski. The plot revolves around how a human child, named "Boo" by Sully, gets into the Monster world and turns it upside down, Sully and Mikes attepmts to get her back to Earth, and a smart subplot about an insidous plan to end the "scream shortage" in Monsteropolis by kidnapping children and litterally sucking the screams out of them.

The movie is faced-paced and very funny. It remains original while paying homage, through a series of in-jokes" to great monster films of the past. It is also a great story for children, as it teaches important messages about friendship, avoiding sterotypes, and even ethics. Where "Shrek" was a mostly cynical spin on fairy tales that went for cheap laughs and had a mixed message about true beauty, "Monsters Inc" is a lovely tale that is funny for both children and adults. It's another home run from the folks at Pixar.

Summary: HUGE hit with my 3 year old twins
Review: My twins LOVE this movie. They ask to watch "Boo and Kitty" every chance they get. My 5 year old niece and 2 year old nephew love it too! Definitely a must have for kids, between you and me I think it's pretty cute too ;)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Monsters Inc.
Review: Out of all the Disney/Pixar films (so far), this is UNDOUBTABLY the best! It's not my favorite movie ever, but it's an excellent movie. When it was in theaters, I wanted to go see it but I didn't get to. My dad wanted to see this movie too, so when it came out he rented the video. I watched it 3 times! (laughing the whole time!) And if we still had it, I'd have watched it alot more. The CG animation is good, (Boo looked like a real girl!) and the monsters aren't too scary, so I don't think younger kids will be freaked out by them.

So Monsters Inc. is a great movie, gotta see it...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Laughs!! Too Cute!!
Review: This is one of my favorite movies of all time. When I watched it in the theaters, I knew I had to add this to my DVD collection! Monsters, Inc. is a great family movie full of emotions: it's adorable, funny, sad, makes tears well up, gets you mad and makes you laugh out loud. You'll fall in love with the characters! Fun movie for children, as well as adults to enjoy! Best Disney flick I've seen in a loooong time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Superb in every way
Review: Pixar's seemingly endless roll continues with this gem of a movie. And once again I hew not only to the standard that I liked it, but of the audience reaction as well when I saw it in the theaters. Everyone laughed as one, watched silently in awe as one, you get the picture. And when Boo / Sulley first said goodbye, there was not a dry eye in the house.

The meat and potatoes is, this movie hits all the right buttons. It fulfills the promise that both Toy Story movies, good movies though they are, never quite made it to. They combine the whip-smart humor, heart-string-tugging sequences, and lush landscapes for all this to happen in. Randall alone (somewhat cliched, yes, but in my book a great classic villain, wonderfully voiced by Steve Buscemi) shows what can be done with a great voice in the hands of animators. This proves another coup for the filmmakers, in that everyone's voice fits. Jennifer Tilly is the perfect Celia. Billy Crystal is just right for Mike, the same as John Goodman is just who I'd picture behind a character like Sulley. In the same vein, I have a hard time picturing anyone ELSE doing these characters, because they were picked this well. And while I'm at it, kudos to those who put together the extras. Just seeing the length of time they spent getting something so seemingly simple as Sulley's fur to work correctly is a treat in itself. Not only that, but there's a treasure trove of other oddball studio tour treats, etc.. the new short film isn't the best thing they've ever done, but it's good. And the short "For The Birds" is still exquisite in all it's simplicity.

In any event, there is no more to be said. I could go on about the movie's storyline more, but I don't want to ruin anything. Suffice it to say the folks at Pixar did a fine job, and this is an excellent movie that works on many levels for both kids and adults, and well worth your picking up.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: best movie of the year
Review: This movie is awesome. I think I saw it four times in the movie theater last year and of course I now have the DVD. Awesome music, characters, plot, storyline, everything! There is a ton of bonus material on this 2-DVD set and it is fantastic! Plus this movie is not just for kids - it's for everyone. I'm a junior in college and this movie totally is for anyone and everyone.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another home run...
Review: ...for the folks at Pixar. I found this movie every bit as entertaining, clever, and ingenious as their other films. The animation and voice talents are superb. Aside from the jokes and the dizzying chase scene, there are two scenes in the film that are living proof of the power of truly great animation; one, near the end, is absolutely heartbreaking and puts a lump in my throat no matter how many times I see it. The other is the final image of the film, and it blows my mind to think about how a collection of pixels could carry such emotional resonance. I say bravo.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Animated Movie Made
Review: Monsters Inc is by far the best animated film to date! The CGI animation is SO real, that half the time, you completely forget you are watching drawn characters rather then real actual monsters!
The story line has something for everyone to enjoy, it's great for the kids of corse, but theres no kind of person I can think of anyhow that would not find this film to be enjoyable! It's so convincing as well that it seems hard to believe that the "Monster World" isnt real! As far as the comedy goes, no other movie lately has made me laugh quite as much!
John Goodman and Billy Crystal deserve some sort of award too for lending their voices to the film. The casting is no less the perfect which makes the characters seem all the more real! This is a definate must have movie, if you don't get it, you are crazy! I would have paid a hundred bucks for it twice if I had to!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun For All Ages
Review: I have three children under 4. My youngest just turned 1, and I think he loves this movie the most! The kids ask to see this movie daily, and would if I let them watch that much TV. It really is a great movie for all ages.

Very appealing to my 4 yr. old are the games as well. They did a great job with the second disk, as well as the bonus game disk. It's a great package, and well worth the price.
