Best Pixar Movie Ever!

Rating: 10/10 (25 April 2006)

I saw this movie with my wife when it first came out in the theater. I remember we were running errands that day and just decided on seeing it spur-of-the moment. I don't regret that at all. I bought it as soon as it came out and a couple years later we had our first little one, a daughter (now two years old) who absolutely loves it. She lovingly asks for us to put it on all the time, she calls it "Monsters".
There's lots to enjoy about this movie from the technology to music and of course the characters. You really can't say anything bad about it. First I gotta say that the voices were all very well picked. I get the biggest kick out of Mike (Billy Crystal) and Sulley (John Goodman). Their musical number at the end is cute too.
The one thing I personally enjoy the most about it is that it finds a happy medium that you don't always see in movies geared toward kids. By that I mean that it's not dummied-down so that "kids can understand it" but still keeps adults entertained. It also doesn't go overboard at trying to cram a message down your throat. This is just good fun and some laughs. You can't go wrong with this one whether the kids are home or not. For those who haven't seen it yet, go and rent it.
