A daily comment from Midget Emma: Cars (2006)

Rating: 7/10 (27 January 2008)

Another great kids movie from the geniuses at Pixar but there is a few problems.
All the other Pixar movies seemed to be great movies for all but this one seems to be aimed at the young boys. Now i am not saying that people other than young boys won't like this but it feels like it was made for the guys.
The animation is superb which is what you expect from the people at Pixar. The movie has detailed environments and the cars look awesome. At one point in the movie you forget that they are just cars and look at them like they are living things.
There are some great tunes in there that are about cars. Like that 'Life is a highway' song. The songs match the movie very nicely.
Again we fall in love with the characters like we do in every Pixar movie. Owen Wilson done a great job as lightning McQueen and all the other voices did great jobs.
The story was good. A race car called Lightning McQueen gets accidentally lost in a town in the middle of nowhere which is called radiator springs. There he meets all different types of cars. Lightning McQueen must get to California before the big race starts so he can be signed on to be the new face of a car company and be a even more famous race car.
Although this doesn't have the warm fuzziness that the other Pixar movies do this still is a good kids movie. There are some laughs in there but not as many as there could have been. Overall it is a good kids flick. Even though it is my least favourite Pixar movie(Although i haven't seen A Bugs Life yet).
I recommend it if you want to see a good kids movie. I highly recommend it if you have a young boy and want to have a Father-son movie night. It is a nice gift to a young son they should enjoy it. The girls may like it to.
