Yet another witty and wonderfully animated movie from Pixar.

Rating: 8/10 (7 April 2002)

'Monsters Inc.' is one of the computer-animated successors to the brilliant 'Toy Story'. It lives up to the tradition of brilliant animated films both kids and adults can enjoy. It's even better than 'Shrek', and 'Shrek' was pretty damn good!
The story follows Sully (voiced by John Goodman), a giant, furry monster, and his friend Mike Wazowski(Billy Crystal), a green eyeball with limbs. They're from 'Monstropolis', a city of monsters in another dimension and their job is to collect 'scream energy' by, you guessed it, coming out of closets (which, as we know from 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe', are interdimensional portals) and making kids scream. However, there's trouble at work (kids are getting too hard to scare, rivalry with another monster) and everything really starts falling to pieces when a little toddler comes through a door into Monstropolis. Monsters are terrified of kids, whom they regard as toxic. Which is reasonable enough.
The animation is gorgious, it's very funny (on different levels), fast-paced and not too sentimental either. Definitely one of the most enjoyable movies you'll ever see. Watch the end credits too: like a Jackie Chan film they're one of the highlights of the movie.
8/10
