uninspired

Rating: 6/10 (4 November 2001)

I still don't know what the hoopla is all about. The story was about average, the animation was decent (nothing you haven't seen before, believe me), the character design ranged from muppet-esque to flat out boring (how many monsters looked like they were plastic tubes with 5 eyes?) and it was so incredibly predictable I nearly nodded off after the first 30 minutes.

And since when do MONSTERS have names like Randall, Sullivan and Mike?

Harry Potter looks like a more promising "children's movie" than this one was---and if not, at least it looks inspired. Pixar's quality has gone WAY down.
