This movie wasn't so much "awful", as...

Rating: 1/10 (22 July 2006)

Just plain /mediocre/, apart from the animation, which I choose not to rate on this site. I found it to be typically inane Disney fare, and if I'd actually contributed anything more than an evening to watching it -- it was part of dinner and a movie with my parents, who walked out fairly early after paying for it (which was the buzz we heard on The Omen remake, BTW (a vastly superior movie to this one, IMHO), a guard outside the SilverCity mentioning that people had walked out of the latter movie before it ended looking very put out, advice my parents regretted giving any attention) -- I would have been royally ticked off. As it was, I felt the loss of the evening quite painfully, since I had been hoping to see tO for weeks, but lacked either the time or the money until this month. "Cars" justifies my swearing-off Disney (meaning movies and TV shows with "The Walt Disney Company/Corporation" on them) as of more than twenty years ago quite well.
