Summary: We Scare Because We Care
Review: I love this movie! It's great for the kids and funny for the adults.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful Movie
Review: Monsters Inc. is a wonderful movie, it's cute, it's funny, the cast is lovable..Did I mention it's a funny movie? Aha, thought so. I could sit and watch Monsters Inc. and Lilo and Stitch all day. Pass the popcorn, please.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: very creative
Review: Monsters Inc. was definitely a one of a kind movie. The plot was very good and very unique, while the animation was the tried and true Pixar style. It was pretty funny, although not as funny as I hoped, yeah, and it had some morals built into it, the subtle type. I do think that any audience would like it, although the younger group would probably love it. It was good with no obvious faults, and maybe the reason it was not as funny as I hoped was its deep set storyline. But, altogether a good movie.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Doesn't compare to Toy Story...
Review: Keep in mind that I'm 31 years old. I didn't enjoy this movie nearly as much as many other Disney classics-something was just missing. I didn't find any any of the main characters to be that funny or that charismatic, and the music wasn't even on the same level as Toy Story, although they tried very hard to duplicate the success of that movie and it's sequel.

However, I have to say that my 11-year-old and 20-month old adore this movie, and will watch it over and over again if I let them!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Disney & Pixar
Review: Disney seems to make great things with other companies (see Kindom Hearts) and Monster Inc. is a great example of this. While it isn't a funny as Toy Story it is better then a Bug's life. The boogie man is real and monsters really do live inside your closet in this movie. The door roller coaster is defiantly the best part of the movie along with little Boo. I can't wait to see what magic Disney & Pixar make the next time around.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: B-O
Review: I rate this movie with one word-Boring. Bad plot and it dosen't suck you in

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very good flick but not great
Review: Monsters Inc. is a very good movie, but I think the hype left me a bit dissapointed.
The story of monsters behind our closet doors we all feared as children is outstanding. John Goodman and Billy Crystal are absolutely amazing as the voices behind the two main characters, and will be identified with these roles for years to come. However, I didn't find it as funny as many other reviewers. There were some jokes I chuckled at, but nothing I really laughed out loud about. The role of the child in the movie is a bit weak, I would have liked to have seen the animators make her a bit older and funnier. I did find the parallels between the real world and the world of the monsters funny at times.
What I thought was the funniest part of the movie was actually the "out takes" at the end of the DVD. Those are the things I really laughed out loud at.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Put Boo back where she came from or so help me....
Review: This is one of the best packaged DVD collections you'll find. You could spend hours with the extras, as they're informative and fun (imagine being paid to rid around on a scooter as a tour guide, like the director and the Pixar associates!). Mike's New Car is funny (made for the video release) and For the Birds is cute!

John Goodman plays John Sullivan, the lovable larger than life blue monster, who leads the pack at scaring kids. His pal Mike (a cyclops voiced by Billy Crystal) is well-meaning, chatty and hilarious. Somehow, they wind up with a cute 2-month old human they nickname "Boo" (you must understand that humans are considered contaminating, as one monster gets its fur shaved for contact with another human). Can they return "Boo" back to her door? Will Mike ever get things right with his girlfriend? And can "Sully" still lead the pack even with the snake-like Randall?

Kudos to Goodman, Crystal et al for their vocal performances, Randy Newman for his musical score, especially the winsome song "If I Didn't Have You," directors Lee Unkrich, David Silverman and Pete Docter and producers John Lasseter, Andrew Stanton and Darla K. Anderson!

The "outtakes" are pretty funny, especially the play "Put That Thing Back Where It Came From or So Help Me." After you've watched the movie in full, check out the commentaries.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Put that thing back where it came from.. Or so help me...
Review: Monsters Inc. is the newest installment of the Disney/Pixar relationship. Following in the footsteps of Toy Story and A Bug's Life, it is a funny and touching story of a monster and the little girl who loves him. John Goodman gives voice to the most lovable of all the monsters in Monstropolis. Sulley is the top scarer at Monster's Inc. but someone else has found a new way to beat that record and pull in ratings topping numbers. Randall, voiced by Steve Buscemi, is just the type of monster that makes kids afriad to open their closet. He is a self serving, chamaleon like monster who has come up with a scheme that will take the world of scaring to a whole new level. Instead of the old system of hiding in the closet and scaring a kid to get a litlte scream, why not just milk it out of them with a machine? Randall accidentally lets a little girl (Boo) lose in Monstropolis. Sulley thinks its his fault, so he takes it upon himself to put her back with the help of his pal Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal). On the way, they have fun adventures and lots of fun comedy. Sulley discovers what Randall is up to and that Boo is at the center of it. Will he be able to stop it in time?

Rating: 5 stars
