    Monsters, Inc.

    Reviewed by

    "Monsters Inc." isn't only a film that will delight kids; it's got big laughs for adults too. What I love about this movie most of all is the truly original premise. This world where monsters are real and they power up their cities by bottling up the screams of frightened children is wonderfully inventive and it lends itself to some incredibly creative character designs. It’s all so well animated that you might just forget that what you're seeing on the screen isn't live action footage (particularly the scenes involving snow) Another particularly strong element in my opinion is the voice casting. The voices match the monsters so well that the models must have been modified or done after the recordings were done to match the voices, mannerisms and dialogue so well. Either that or we’ve got some incredibly dedicated, intelligent and talented individuals with an incredible amount of forethought behind the scenes at Pixar.

    It's sweet and funny, with just that right sprinkle of heart and at times very thrilling too. One chase scene involving doors (you know what I mean if you’ve seen the movie) in particular always gets me excited and I never get tired of gushing over how wonderfully original it is. It’s filled with characters and moments with Mike (Billy Crystal), Sully (John Goodman) and Boo (Mary Gibbs) that your heart would have to be made of stone not to enjoy it. Every time I watch this movie I catch some new gag in the background or some new detail I’ve overlooked in the past, meaning it’s got great re-watch value as well. You'll always find something interesting to look at (though you'll have to be familiar with the story to be able to pull your eyes away from the main action)

    This is the kind of movie that you call a "family" film because anyone can watch “Monsters, Inc. ” and instantly fall in love with it. When you watch it with other people, it makes you feel like your enjoyment of the movie is bringing you all closer together. It's so great and smart and funny that you'll have a terrific time watching it over and over. (On Dvd, October 27, 2012)
