You'll see it but won't like it.

Rating: 6/10 (5 November 2001)

What a disappointment! We've come to expect a lot from Pixar and the earlier films have not failed. Monsters is a failure. The story line, while novel, is weak and thin. The pace of the movie is a keen to a Saturday morning Bugs Bunny 3 min short. Nothing sets in and most of the film is spent in a chase scene of various sorts. Next is the lack of characters, Mike (the green ball) frankly isn't that interesting, he's almost cute, almost really funny, but then not. Sully (the furry guy) is the haphazard hero. The duo reminded me of the Lewis/Martin act. After these 2, nothing, zip, nada worth while.
My kids are normally glued to any Disney event, but even at 90 minutes they were bored after 30. Nice try. BTW .. the little mini Birds shown at the beginning is excellent, unfortunately, it goes downhill from there.
Regrettably, you'll see the movie because you have to, but save your money and go during the bargain hours.
