So bad

Rating: Null/10 (16 July 2011)

Just saw this movie last night with my husband and our 11 year old. It was so bad, seemed like it was thrown together in about a week by a team that just wanted to get it done.
'Mater is the main character. The plot sort of centers around him being stupid. That's it for a little over an hour and a half. It tries to be touching and poignant in parts but just embarrassingly fails. I didn't care about any of the characters.
And I agree that it should not be rated "G". The violence and "dark" plot didn't bother me so much, but I can understand other parents' complaints. And yeah, the anti-oil theme was very boorish. I just thought it was bad. Period. Big disappointment
