DARE TO SCARE

Rating: 8/10 (20 May 2019)

Mike desires to be a "scarer." The monster world is powered by screams. The problem is that Mike (Billy Crystal) while smart, isn't scary. He attends Monster University where he studies hard to be a scarer. The plot reads like "Revenge of the Nerds" as Mike must win a scare contest along with his hopeless fraternity to prove himself and stay in school as a scarer.
Mike is a rival to Sullivan, a university legacy (John Goodman) but later they operate on the same team.
The film is cute. The initiation scene was my favorite with a laugh out loud chuckle.
One the kids enjoyed ages 5 and up.
