I saw an advance screening of Monsters Inc.
Heres my review:
I am a huge fan of Pixar but I was very dissapointed with this movie. As youve seen in the trailers two Monsters (voiced by John Goodman and Billy Crystal) are best friends who work for a power company in a land of Monsters. They open doors to the human world and collect screams from children for their power source.
All Ill say about the rest of the plot is that a small child accidentally ends up in Monster land and all hell breaks loose.
This film has cute moments and laughs are few but thats it. The plot and pacing fall flat. Like the other Pixar films there were wonderful characters but I didnt feel the same watching this.
BTW im not saying "Dont see the movie" By all means do. This is a fair movie. The cast was wonderful. There are a few key moments and laughs. There are some very clever moments as well. It is worth seeing. Its just not great.
I will say this that the sound is very good also. I was amazed at how good it was. It will make a good DVD.
I give it a **1/2 out of 4 Stars
