OK, I'm starting to miss the good old hand drawn animation

Rating: 7/10 (14 November 2006)

I just watched Cars yesterday and like I said in a previous comment, I am getting more into the animation flicks this year, especially since a lot of those movies are very good and very funny. Cars is the same exception with every animated movie that was made this year, it had some very funny moments, great animation, but it just felt like once again, there was nothing special.
Cars is about this one car, McQueen, a very famous race car who is about to win the "Piston Cup". But when he is traveling on the road on his employee's truck, he accidentally falls off landing in a cruddy town where he ends up destroying the road. As a punishment, he must stay there until he perfects the road once again, but in the mean time, he makes some excellent friends and a lovely porche acquaintance, Sally.
The story is very sweet and the animation was great, not to mention an all star cast really brought the film together, but like I said, just nothing is surprising me any more. Which is a shame, and I think others are starting to agree more that we miss the old animation, it's now just the same thing over and over again. But don't shy away from Cars, it was a good family film.
7/10
