One of the best looking animated films on Blu-Ray

Rating: 7/10 (26 December 2014)

Explores the origins of the Monsters Inc. universe when Sully and Mike weren't always the best of friends. Central to the experience, is the atmosphere. Pixar picked the perfect art style, with meticulous life- like attention to detail but also lots of color and personality. The animation is top-notch and it looks fantastic. It's thrilling, full of personality and entertaining the whole way through.
It doesn't have the same innovation that the original had, so I'm less interested in rewatching it. It does follow the bandwagon of tropes in college frat movies: jocks vs nerds, book smarts vs. innate talent, underdog vs. groomed successor and so on. But it promotes good morals of friendship and honesty for children.
