Pixar keeps rolling

Rating: 7/10 (21 June 2007)

"Monsters, Inc." did a great social service. While not the best animation I've seen, it is still praiseworthy. Billy Crystal and John Goodman just didn't do it for me as the voices, and while the monsters weren't for scaring purposes, they were still monsters none the less, which means explanations to the kids.
But, "Monsters, Inc." effectively alleviated the fears of children everywhere by humanizing monsters and making them funny even. And what better child social service could they have done than having the monsters try to get kids to laugh instead of scream and cry to power their city. I was impressed with "Monsters, Inc." which amounts to yet another gold star on Pixars resume. At this point Pixar can do no wrong. They could make an animated stick figures movie and still make it interesting.
