Cars 2

Lightning McQueen competes in the first ever World Grand Prix. This time he brings along his best friend Mater who quickly gets mixed up in a energy conspiracy.

Wow. Who would have thought it... Pixar is human after all.  This was somewhat of a let down.  I love the original Cars.  LOVE it. Pixar has a history of making movies that have such well developed story lines and characters.  They bring real heart and soul to cartoons making them enjoyable for both adults and children. This one seriously lacked that.  It seemed that the moral of the story was, Mater is an idiot, and that's OK.

It is really just an animated James Bond movie and I suppose many people will like it.  I just don't think that it comes even close to the other Pixar vehicles in terms of story and character development.  I will say this however -- The Toy Story short that is shown before the movie is FABULOUS and well worth your ticket.

*** Must See (if only for the short)
Rated G
