Not as funny as Shrek, but it was OK.

Rating: Null/10 (5 January 2002)

When I read the rave reviews about Monsters, Inc., I thought that I'd better go and see it. But where on earth did those critics get a ten-out-of-ten?
Call me too sophisticated if you like, but the humour in Monsters Inc didn't quite make the grade. Even the bloopers at the end were boring. Yawn...where's the Shrek DVD? I'd prefer that any day. Monsters Inc was definitely more of a children's film to me than a childrens/adults like Shrek. Now, I know this is a review for Monsters, but Shrek is the ten-out-of-ten for me.
I'm not saying I didn't like the film - it was good. But if it was funny, I must've missed it (although I did think that Boo was sort of cute)but the rest of the story was pretty cool. Plus, I absolutely loved the little "For the Birds" thing at the start. I think it was better than the actual movie. But Shrek beats Monsters, Inc by a mile.
