What happens if humans, animals & even flies are replaced by cars? A world where the wise old ones are Hudson Hornets, the stupid and lazy ones make for corroding tow away vans, the cute ones are Porsche & the flashy racy types are Ferraris & Lamborghinis. Good piece of imagination man! Cars is all about equating BHPs with human behaviour.
This is the story of a talented rookie racing car "Lightning McQueen", who transforms from a cocky and Narcist car to a matured one thanks to his unexpected "pit-stop" at a sleepy town called "Radiator Springs". McQueen is the latest sensation in the Nascar kinda racing track and with the championship season drawing to a close, the coveted "Piston Cup" is well within his reach if he can ward off the legendary reigning champion "The King" and the evil runner-up Chick Hicks. A win for McQueen will fetch him name, fame, a contract with the most sought after race team and the distinction of being the 1st rookie to win the cup. But fate had something else in store for McQueen as he ends up in a tie with the other two and is forced to another tie breaker race in California. On his way to California, McQueen is separated from his trailer in which he was travelling and is forced to stay back in Radiator Springs town due to a series of unfortunate events.
The cars of the Radiatior Springs are the usual small town folks who are neither aware of nor amused by the superstar status McQueen and is put through a rigourous community service to compensate for the damage he has caused to the town. His subsequent interaction with the town folks transforms him completely from a reckless racing car to a more responsible one and in the meantime earns him a best friend, a mentor and a girlfriend.
Cars is a heartwarming animation movie with well defined characters. Its really funny when it has to be and equally touching and inspiring. The quality of animation is top class and the humour never goes over the top. Overall the perfect weekend movie for kids and adults alike; its a must see for racing enthusiasts (the opening racing scenes are awesome). Go ahead for this movie on top gear, vrooooooooom.
