Fantastic

Rating: 9/10 (18 May 2006)

An utterly charming film from the folks at Pixar. I was lucky enough to see a pre-release show at their studio.
Wonderful voice performances, a lively plot (highly reminiscent of Doc Hollywood), and brilliant animation combine to make this a great film. One would not imagine you could conjure up pathos or a love interest when all the players are cars, but there you go, they did it.
Lightning McQueen's role as the aging car with a past is very well played. Michael Keaton does a fine job with the brash race car who is the lead character.
If you don't love this film, you have no soul.
Don't want to spoil it, so just be there when it opens!
