Monsters, Inc.

Summary: Not bad, but Shrek is ten times more fun.
Review: Pixar is very ingenious, but I had so much more fun with Shrek, because the basic subjects keep being the same as in Toy Story, they repeat themselves.

Summary: Great family movie
Review: Great animation and story. I took my 3 yr old to see the movie at a preview and that's all she has talked about for the last 2 days. I think she enjoyed it as much as I did. It will be on my wish list for Christmas (and I'm 36 yrs old). You have to take your kids to see it.

Summary: The best animated film of the year!
Review: I was lucky enough to see an advance screening of this movie the past weekend and *highly* recommend it to everyone: kids, adults, monsters--you all have to go see this one! The newest movie from CGI geniuses Pixar, the studio that brought you the "Toy Story" movies and "A Bug's Life", is a sheer delight from beginning to end. The characters are cleverly designed and fun to watch, the animation is brisk and colorful, the dialogue funny and sparkling, the voice casting perfect, and most important of all, the story compelling and intriguing. This is a cartoon that insults no one's intelligence--it's perfect for the kids as well as adults, without condescending or sinking into juvenile humor (well, there are a few toilet jokes, but they're so lightly done as to be inoffensive to anyone).

This "E.T. in reverse" story has wonderful plot ideas--monsters in the closet scare human kids to create "scream energy" to power their city, Monsteropolis--but monsters are as afraid of kids as kids they are of monsters. When a charming and cuddly little tot nicknamed "Boo" escapes into the monster world, it's up to scaremonster Sulley and his nervous cohort Mike to save the kid, put her back where she belongs, and keep anyone else from finding out she's loose in the monster world--but Sulley's sinister co-worker Randall (a charmingly oily chameleon) has devious plans for little Boo...

There's so much detail going on that this one demands you see it multiple times (and with a plot, characters and voice acting as charming as this, you will *want* to). The voice acting is spot-on (I've always felt John Goodman was a great actor; who would have ever expected a blue and purple monster would be one of his finest roles?) and the care and attention Pixar has put into the making of this film shows: every frame sparkles with color and wit, and the last-act chase through the Monsters, Inc. factory, where Sulley, Mike, Boo and Randall leap from closet door to closet door thousands of feet above the factory floor is amazingly designed, brilliant and inspired, a breathtaking edge-of-your-seat chase that rivals the Death Star Attack in "Star Wars." Best of all, it features a sweet and emotional ending that had the cynical New York professional crowd I was seeing it with literally go "Awwwwwwwwww..." aloud. And if you have any doubt as to the sense of fun that this movie inspires, check out Sulley and Mike's Amazon.com Customer Reviews and Wish Lists! Heck, *I'd* buy Mike that copy of Toni Morrison's "The Bluest Eye"!

"Monsters, Inc": the best animated film of the year? Absolutely...maybe even the best *film* of the year. Certainly the most fun--and that's exactly what we need right now.

Summary: A Great Movie (A review from someone who's actually seen it)
Review: ... The attention to detail is great, as always, as are the voice talents. Billy Crystal is himself, Jennifer Tilly is cute, James Coburn is very fatherly. But props must be given to John Goodman, who creates a "James P. Sullivan" you can't help but love. And thanks to Pixar's economic story-telling, the story moves briskly and nothing is wasted.

I would diffently recommend this movie to anyone. I'm a rather cynical moviegoer, and this made my feel like a six-year old kid again. It's a great family movie, a great date movie, A GREAT MOVIE.

Summary: Monsters, Inc. - A great movie!
Review: I've been "Monster-ized," and I've been searching for every little bit of info on Monsters, Inc. So what I know about the movie is that:
Mike and Sulley live in Monstropolis, a city in the monster world, and work at Monsters, Inc. Monsters, Inc. hires monsters to scare kids. The screams from the kids are used as energy for the monsters' world. One time, as Sulley is scaring, he accidently lets in a little girl (they name her Boo.) who is not affraid of the monsters. But children are toxic to monsters, and Mike and Sulley will get in BIG trouble if they are caught with Boo. So Mike and Sulley have to find out ways to hide Boo from the CDA (Child Detection Agency).
That's all i know so far!
I think it's a great movie, with the voices of Billy Crystal (Mike Wazowski)and John Goodman (James P. Sullivan a.k.a. Sulley).
So check out ... for more info!

Summary: Monsters vs. Shrek.
Review: This is an amazing film which kept watching with no patience of waiting to see what happened next. Better than Toy Story, better than Small Soldiers and better than Shrek! The voices work magnificantly with the animated characters and this movie is not only for the kids but for the whole family. It is definitely worth watching.
